Short guide on how to run a Win9x connection with PPPD to Debian Linux
----------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Do not mess around with the Win9x configuration.
   Do not manually configure DNS, scripts etc.
   Do not switch on the terminal windows.
   Accept all defaults or better leave it as it was at installation.

2. You need to have a getty program that supports automatic PPP protocol
   detection, such as mgetty (versions >= 0.99).

Note: the mgetty shipped with Debian has to be set up to enable this
   behaviour - look for "AutoPPP" in the login.config configuration file.

3. Change the "ms-dns" lines in /etc/ppp/options, and review the complete
   file for things you need to do.

4. Make sure that your /etc/ppp/pap-secrets file is set up to allow users
   mentioned in system passwords database (/etc/passwd) to establish PPP
   connections using their normal password.

Note: the pap-secrets file shipped with Debian pppd is set up to enable
   this by default.

5. On the Win9x box, in Dial-Up Networking folder, create a new connection,
   and enter the phone number. Prior to connecting, enter the username and
   password.

Win9x should connect to your Linux PPPD without problems and automatically
configure IP addresses, the netmask and the DNS servers. You can immediately
start Netscape, Internet Explorer or any other TCP/IP tools.
