Portslave is in Debian, "apt-get install portslave" does the job. It's
strongly recommended that you don't compile it yourself as it's a real pain
to compile (of course compiling via dpkg-buildpackage is easy enough).
Portslave does require a RADIUS server for full functionality, but that's easy
enough to setup. The RADIUS server can use the phone number of the caller
etc as it sees fit (Portslave provides all the data if correctly configured).
You should theoretically be able to get it working in a minimal way without
RADIUS, but as no-one tests that it may not work...
Portslave can provide logins via ssh, telnet, or spawning /bin/login as well
as SLIP and PPP.
