ppp server

[Janina Sajka]

If you mean to dialin, you must have a modem that will respond when the "phone rings."

Read mgetty documentation. You might want to get it working first for dialup shell access, and then add the ppp service,
just to chunk the development of this service on your machine into manageable segments.
