Title: dialin server
Post by: Michael on April 04, 2001, 07:16:28 AM
I have installed the dial-in module on E-smith 4.1, and reinstalled the e-smith-base, but I cannot dial in to the server.

/var/log/messages says:

I can connect if I open a terminal window and start ppp manually, but i don't want to have to do that. I have even recompiled mgetty to make sure it supports AutoPPP. Any ideas?

Hi Michael,
This line contains the clue to the problem:

server mgetty[27313]: login: '/etc/mgetty+sendfax/login.config' must be root/0600: Invalid argument

login as root and type the following command
#chmod 600 /etc/mgetty+sendfax/login.config
and you should be sweet
If you check the permissions on that file it will be currently 644
