no, let me rephrase that:

on the machine 140.172.10.48, the files look like:

options:
bsdcomp 15,15

options.tty00 (the serial link):
persist  netmask 255.255.255.0 140.172.10.48:140.172.10.103 local

options.tty01 (the modem (answering dialin) link):
persist netmask 255.255.255.0 140.172.10.48:140.172.10.110 modem

My setup to the machine 140.172.10.103 (tty00, serial cable to my Duo 230
running NetBSD) works fine.  The setup to 140.172.10.110 is a modem
listening for connections on tty01 (basically, waiting for my mac at home
to dial into it).  This is the setup that doesn't work.

Thanks,
	t
