I run PPP between crappie.morningstar.com (137.175.6.3, my home machine) and remora.morningstar.com (137.175.2.7, my workstation at the office). This document describes how I use it. The installation of PPP itself is covered in the PPP distribution. I put a line like this in remora's /etc/passwd: Pkarl:2y4613BDaQD3x:51:10:Karl's PPP login:/tmp:/usr/local/etc/pppstart I created a login shell script on remora called /usr/local/etc/pppstart: #!/bin/sh /usr/bin/mesg n stty -tostop exec /usr/local/etc/ppp 137.175.2.7: I use the ppp-on command to bring up a connection, and ppp-off to shut it down. These shell scripts, plus the unlock and fix-cua scripts and the source to the chat program are included. You will need to heavily modify these to suit your own situation, including Internet addresses, machine names, telephone numbers, modem dialing commands, baud rates, login names and passwords. Make the "ppp..." command in the ppp-on script look something like this: ppp 137.175.6.3: /dev/cua & The "137.175.6.3:" is of the format "local-addr:remote-addr" with the remote address null (it will be negotiated by PPP). Look at the login shell script above; it can be common to all dial-in PPP users on your machine because it only specifies the address of the remora (receiving) end of the link. If you use the enclosed chat and unlock programs, be sure they are suid uucp, and fix-cua should be suid root. The ppp-on script should be chmod 700, owner yourself, to keep the password (semi-) secure. I use the following eeprom settings and /dev and /etc/ttytab entries in order to support dial-in and dial-out on a single phone line: crappie 12% eeprom | grep ttya ttya-mode=19200,8,1,n,h ttya-rts-dtr-off=false ttya-ignore-cd=false crappie 13% ls -lg /dev/cua /dev/ttya crw-rw-rw- 1 root staff 12, 128 Nov 20 09:14 /dev/cua crw--w--w- 1 root wheel 12, 0 Nov 20 08:25 /dev/ttya crappie 14% grep ttya /etc/ttytab ttya "/usr/etc/getty std.19200" unknown on crappie 15% On SunOS 4.1 and later, make sure that the /etc/ttytab line for ttya doesn't say "local": ttya "/usr/etc/getty std.38400" unknown on Make sure your modem passes data transparently; watch out especially for ^S, ^Q, ^P (UUCP spoofing) and parity problems. I have a Telebit Trailblazer+ attached to /dev/ttya with the following register settings: aaatz OK aat&n E1 F1 M1 Q6 P V1 X0 Version BA4.00 S00=001 S01=000 S02=043 S03=013 S04=010 S05=008 S06=002 S07=060 S08=002 S09=006 S10=007 S11=070 S12=050 S45=000 S47=004 S48=000 S49=000 S50=000 S51=005 S52=002 S53=003 S54=001 S55=000 S56=017 S57=019 S58=002 S59=000 S60=000 S61=000 S62=003 S63=001 S64=000 S65=000 S66=001 S67=000 S68=255 S90=000 S91=000 S92=001 S95=000 S100=000 S101=000 S102=000 S104=000 S110=001 S111=030 S112=001 S121=000 N0: N1: N2: N3: N4: N5: N6: N7: N8: N9: OK And, the following entry is in /etc/gettytab: # # 19200/2400 dialin for Telebit Trailblazer+ modem # T|T19200:dial-19200:\ :nx=T2400:sp#19200: T2400|dial-2400:\ :nx=T19200:sp#2400: My chat script dialing command looks like "ATs50=255s111=0DT4515678" instead of just "ATDT4515678" in order to force a PEP mode connection and to disable the UUCP spoofing (otherwise, the modem swallows or delays ^P characters). I run /usr/etc/in.routed on crappie (the calling end) and have this in my /etc/gateways file: net 0.0.0.0 gateway remora metric 1 passive host crappie gateway crappie metric 0 passive Routed is started in /etc/rc.local. This way, I don't have to manually add or delete routes when links come up. I ifconfig the ppp0 interface on crappie at boot time like this (in /etc/rc.local with the other ifconfig's): ifconfig ppp0 crappie remora netmask 0xffffff00 down I put "init ppp_attach" in my /sys/sun4c/conf/CRAPPIE file so that the above ifconfig down will work: pseudo-device ppp1 init ppp_attach # Point-to-Point Protocol, 1 line Routed now keeps my routes sane at the crappie.MorningStar.Com end. My ethernet (le0) and PPP (ppp0) interfaces are configured with the same address and netmask. IP is smart enough to figure out (via the routes in /etc/gateways) that everything useful needs to go out ppp0. Also, the remora end of my PPP link is configured the same way -- the ppp0 interface there is configured with the same address and netmask as remora's le0 ethernet. This means that separate interface names like "remora-ppp" are not needed; point-to-point links (whether PPP, Xerox Synchronous Point-to-Point Protocol, SLIP, IGP or whatever) have (apparently) been used this (seemingly bizarre) way for some time. This works because when IP looks at a POINTOPOINT link it ignores the local address (unlike an ethernet interface) and only looks at the remote address. Here's what netstat shows for me: crappie 109% netstat -r Routing tables Destination Gateway Flags Refcnt Use Interface localhost localhost UH 0 0 lo0 crappie crappie UH 1 11339 le0 default remora UG 0 1266 ppp0 mstar-net-ppp-remora crappie U 0 0 le0 crappie 110% netstat -rn Routing tables Destination Gateway Flags Refcnt Use Interface 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 UH 0 0 lo0 137.175.6.3 137.175.6.3 UH 1 11339 le0 default 137.175.2.7 UG 0 1266 ppp0 137.175.6.0 137.175.6.3 U 0 0 le0 crappie 111% The default route to remora is a result of the first line in the /etc/gateways file ("default" can't be used there; you have to say "0.0.0.0"). On the network at work, I add a static route in our gateway machine's /etc/rc.local file: /usr/etc/route add net 137.175.6 remora 1 All the other machines in the office have default routes pointing at the gateway machine, and all PPP-connected external machines are on the 137.175.6 subnet.
