Hi,
i had made my linux server as dial in server using ppp and mgetty.i am using a modem and telephone line which for takeing incoming calls.I am able to log onto My linux server when i am dialing from remote machine.
but the ping to the linux server is not working.even the telnet and ftp are not working.
but when i am placing a call to the linux machine ,i am able to log with the user name and password such that the shell process is abe to start

but the ping to linux box along with telnet and ftp are not running.i made the pppd run once the user logs in with a username abd password.so that when the shell gets invoked
teh pppd also starts.

but in my case pppd is not starting .why.
kindly give a response at the earliest.

rgds,
kris
