Mgetty - Dial-in Server - LAN access -- HELP
OK, I have gotten mgetty & pppd to permit me to dial in and authenticate
on my server (see previous posts for further details).
However, an obvious reason why I can access other computers on the LAN
would seem to be this:
Our network structure is 10.0.0.1-254, netmask 255.255.255.0 (BTW, isn't
that more simply written 10.0.0.0/24?)
However, upon logging in the client is assigned by pppd 10.0.0.16 (which
is correct), but the netmask is 255.0.0.0 (although I have a line in the
options.server for the correct netmask).
Further, the ppp0 listing in ifconfig is: inet addr: 10.0.0.10 (server
address), P-t-P: 10.0.0.16, Mask 255.255.255.255
why?
