PPP Dial-in problems

[Neil Ford]

I'm trying to connect a couple of small lans using FreeBSD boxes and PPP.

The dail-out box works fine, dialing as and when necessary. However, the
dial-in box does not answer the phone :-(

I've gone through the ppp man page, the example ppp.conf and the handbook
double checking what I've done but I can't see what I've missed.

Included below are the relevent bits of the various config files. If anyone
can spot any mistakes or point me at better ways of doing things, I'd
be grateful.

Neil.
