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..
