^^^^^^ This helped a lot, but it wasn't the only
problem. In the new mgetty packages, the login.config file changed
slightly with the /AutoPPP/ line. Previously I had the default line:
/AutoPPP/ - - /usr/sbin/pppd auth -chap +pap login
which didn't work. In the new login.config, the 3rd parameter change from
a "-" to "a_ppp" -- ie:
/AutoPPP/ - a_ppp /usr/sbin/pppd auth -chap +pap login
.. this may a difference too.

Yes!
Well it connects now, but the networking/ip_masquerading isn't working...
DNS requests work, but I can't ping other machines, including my own Linux
box. Anyone have experiance with ip masquerading and ppp? I got the
local ethernet and ip masquerading, so maybe I can figure this one out.
Thanks so much!
