OK as I have very little knowledge in this regard maybe you could offer some
guidance.
I have since learned that it is better to have mgetty start fro inittab, so
that it respawns automatically.
I have also learnt that my config dir is /etc/mgetty+sendfax/ which I was
scared of initially, as I thought that was just for setting up a fax machine.
I am using ssh to configure the Server which is in the server room. thats why
I logged in with ssh.
I am dialing up from the same PC for testing pruposes.
I want to setup a dialin server with one access point only and it must be able
to access the internet. The firewall I believe I can do by myself by
masquerading ppp0
Here is where I am stuck now:

which runs in an xterm on my PC I get this:

I know that there is some thing missing in login config I am just unsure of
what I must put in it.
OH and my options file /etc/mgetty+sendfax/dialin.config
is empty
