   for quite some time, we've been able to connect to a fedora code 2 
box running an mgetty on /dev/ttyS0.  just today, i set up a fedora 
core 3 test 2 (FC3t2) box, and reproduced, as closely as possible, the 
dial-in PPP environment.

   that is, i edited

 	/etc/inittab
 	/etc/mgetty+sendfax/
 		login.config
 		mgetty.config

and made the same changes to the new FC3t2 box that were on the older 
FC2t3 box.  (the older box has ppp-2.4.1, and the newer has 
ppp.2.4.2).

   now, trying to connect to the new box gives me, in the 
/var/log/messages file:

Oct  6 16:40:55 localhost pppd[2609]: pppd 2.4.2 started by a_ppp, uid 
0

Config-Requests
Oct  6 16:41:32 localhost pppd[2609]: Connection terminated.
Oct  6 16:41:32 localhost pppd[2609]: Exit.


    i'm not sure if there's something i've missed in the configuration. 
i didn't install *everything* on the newer box, due to cramped disk 
space.  so is there a software RPM i might have forgotten?  some file 
i overlooked?

   thoughts on what to check?  thanks.
