hi, I have waited for about a week and have not seen any posting related this question, so I guess it should be OK for me to ask it now ?? I have a PC at home, usually I use the modem to dial-in to a terminal server, the server will prompt for a machine name, after I enter my machine name, the server then login to the machine for me. my question is this, is it possible after I log-in to my machine (SUN Sparc 4.1.1), start some program, push the ppp line discipline (or whatever needs to be done), and starts a PPP connection with my PC ?? I think our terminal server probably supports PPP connetion too, but if I can start the PPP connection on my own machine, I can have more control over the PPP connection, and I can also learn the PPP protocol better. any information or pointer is greatly appreciated. -- Ping
