    PPPd Dialup Terminal Command

    Hey there. I got it working. It requires punching a hole in the sudo'ers file, but I'm willing to take that risk - there aren't a lot of people hacking away at my personal webserver, ya know? Anyway, Add this to /etc/sudoers: www ALL = NOPASSWD: ALL Note that it lets your webserver...

    PPPd Dialup Terminal Command

    Ah.... You hadn't mentioned in your previous posts that this is how you wanted to use it. I've already tried that (with perl). The problem is that the webserver is running as the user "www", which is not you. You are the one logged in, and you are the only one with access to the windowserver...

    Share a Modem over Ethernet (Solution)

    heh... I have no idea who sets the names of devices. I'm a bit of a linux geek (far from guru, but I've got my share of experience) and remembered, ppp0, but in order to check and refresh my memory I just had a look at /etc/ipfw.conf and found the empty section set aside for my ppp...
