Thanks for the info .. I will use your config to have to module support
Solaris in the next release.

One change in the perl that I had to make to get thinks working for mgetty
configuration was to change a few regexp's (or is that regex's?) for the
serial device.  The module assumes that the serial device is /dev/ttyS*, on
solaris it is /dev/term/* (I use /dev/term/a).  I had forgotten about those
mods when I sent the first message.

I've enabled the PPP module for Solaris 8 on a SunBlade 100 and it works
fine, can we get that enabled in the distribution.  I used pppd 2.3.11 and
mgetty 1.0.0.  Here's my config-solaris settings:

pap_file=/etc/ppp/pap-secrets
ppp_options=/etc/ppp/options
encrypt_pass=1
dialin_config=/usr/local/etc/mgetty+sendfax/dialin.config
login_config=/usr/local/etc/mgetty+sendfax/login.config

Thanks for the info .. I will change the module to use those /dev/term/* devices
on Solaris. One question by the way - what did you put in your /etc/inittab file
to get mgetty to run on Solaris?

Re: PPP module for Solaris

Actually the ppp module (under serial port configuration) set that up
correctly, it put in the following line:

2:2345:respawn:/usr/local/sbin/mgetty /dev/term/a


in order for the module to find mgetty I had to add /usr/local/sbin to the
path in /etc/webmin/config

Thanks for the info .. I will change the module to use those /dev/term/*
devices
on Solaris. One question by the way - what did you put in your /etc/inittab
file
to get mgetty to run on Solaris?
