Automatic dialing in Linux

[Victor Tsaran]

Yes, they're both in the kernel. I belive I have a problem with local and
remote IP's. The reason is that I am assigned dynamic IP's on both sides. That
is, my ISP assigns IP's for both local and remote terminals.
Regards,
Vic
Thanks for help.

| Hi Vic -

| ppp support both compiuled into your kernel? That's critical.
