Well if mgetty's working right, you should see something like:

dialout  ttyS0        /usr/sbin/pppd f Tue Sep 16 23:13 - 23:20  (00:07)

in the output of `last -20' if you dialout with the same modem
(ttyS0/COM1 in this case) you will have users connecting on.  Does
this happen?

I haven't come across that one - what does the error message say?

What do you get in /var/log/mgetty/mg_ttyS0.log?  You should see
something like:

09/18 19:01:47 yS0  mgetty: experimental test release 1.1.2-Feb20
09/18 19:24:41 ##### data dev=ttyS0, pid=15577, caller=none, conn='14400/V42BIS', name='', cmd='/usr/sbin/pppd', user='/AutoPPP/'

if it's working right (and you have the same amount of logging as me).
/var/log/ppp.log should then be something like:

Sep 18 19:24:41 prgsrv1 pppd[15577]: pppd 2.2.0 started by root, uid 0
Sep 18 19:24:41 prgsrv1 pppd[15577]: Using interface ppp1

Can they get a shell login by just dialing the number from minicom (or
hyperterminal on Win95)?

Also check /var/log/auth.log to see if there are problems with
passwords or something.
