Hi,
I have my Linux-Box and NetBSD connected trough the serial ports
using ppp at 57600 baud.
You might use the ATD... command to dial out.

Here is the NetBSD-Script: 
(note: /dev/modem is a link to /dev/tty00)
The IP of the Mac is: 172.16.1.2 ; the one of the Linux-Box: 172.16.1.1

<---->
#!/bin/bash
(
/bin/stty -f /dev/modem 57600 crtscts -echo
if chat -t 5 -v ABORT "incorrect" "" "\r" ogin: mac ssword: mac
  then
   pppd file /etc/ppp/options /dev/modem 172.16.1.2:172.16.1.1 &
   sleep 2
   echo "PPP-Network is running." 1>&2
   exit 0
  else
   echo "PPP conection failed." 1>&2
   exit 1
  fi
) < /dev/modem > /dev/modem
<----->

Here what's in the profile of the user "mac" in the Linux-Box:
<--->
stty -echo
mesg n
pppd file /etc/ppp/mac/options.mac

The options.mac file:

Have fun,
