I've tried that this morning to no avail. Here is what I have...
/etc/ppp/options
DNS pointing to ISP (I can web serf while dialed in so I believe this works) WINS pointing to the Linux IP (also the dial up adaptor on the laptop is set to WINS to Linux IP *****In options.ttyS2 remote IP = free IP address 209.xx.xx.xxx local IP = Linux box
Mgetty works since I can dial in and it shows the proper handshake in the ppp.log Linux Server is providing the laptop IP address so the TCPIP properties are: No IP address assigned WINS server to the Linux Gateway to the router DNS to the ISP
If only I could get the laptop to "see" both the debian system and the smbmounted PC than I would be homefree. Any other suggestions would be a godsend.
