I use the PPP for Sparc which comes with a little routine called CHAT.  Very
simple but it does the job.  Here are the ways I connect to other PPP "sides"

1) Call from my SS1+ to a Telebit Netblazer (NB), log into a NB login with
a password, then establish a PPP connection.  This works great.  The NB
setup up SLIP and other PPP links to other NB and ethernet segments.

2) Call from the SS1+ to a Sun 390 running PPP (same one), go though a
Datakit(r) Virtual Switch, to get to the 390, log in, then start PPP.


Both work well.  I use #1 most of the time because I spend most of
my time with PPP at home.
