Re: [iPAQ] Linux <-> WinCE PPP problems

        I don't know how relevent this is, but I have managed to
get ppp working between my 3635 and my linux laptop over irda ...
Apart from the IrDA fun, I basically followed the same procedure as
you (although I added 'passive' to my pppd config, and start pppd first).

        So:
Create a new connection with 'Generic IrDA Modem' as the device, and the
default settings for the rest (leave the phone number blank ... I don't
think this matters too much)

On the linux side, I copied your config, i.e.:
/etc/ppp/peers/ipaq:
------->8----------->8--------
/dev/ircomm0 115200 crtscts debug
connect '/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/chatscripts/ipaq'
passive
persist
novj
noauth
local
192.168.55.1:192.168.55.100
------->8----------->8--------

The only changes are the chatscript location, 'passive' and 'persist' options
and the IP addresses (from what I have heard, your life may be easier if you
use 192.168.55.100 for the IP address of the iPAQ)

/etc/chatscripts/ipaq:
------->8----------->8--------
TIMEOUT 3600
"ATZ" "OK"
"AT" "OK"
"ATE0V1&C1&D2" "OK"
"ATS7=120" "OK"
"ATX3" "OK"
"ATDT" "CONNECT"
------->8----------->8--------

s/ATD/ATDT/

        I start pppd by running 'pppd call ipaq', and then I run the
IrDA connection I made on the ipaq.

        Apart from dropping out occasionally, it seems to work fine.
