Greetings,
What is the correct terminology for setting up a modem to receive calls an establish a connection to a server?
To put it simply;
1. setup mgetty to listen for connections from the modem i.e. listen on ttyS0 (COM1) is that's conencted to modem, modify /etc/inittab.
2. create a "dial-in" user that has pppd as his/her shell. - you will need to setup ppp so that it provides an IP, etc..
