Ok....
(1) Look up the initial characters sent to mgetty so that mgetty knows that a
PPP handshake is requested....
(2) Look up how to insert an external protocol for use with Binkley. I
believe this is one way fax reception can be handled.....
(3) Hook the PPPD daemon up to be called from binkley as an external protocol
based on reception of the first (few) characters of the initial PPP hand shake
sequence.....
This should work....
Ok, no I haven't tested it yet....
Take care.....
