Hi Guys
After searching through the support database I cannot seem to find reference to dial on demand using a dial up link. I am using Suse 7.2 Pro and would like to use it to enable my wife and kids to access the web and mail using my PC as the proxy server and obviously to do so using DOD. I would also like my PC to be the sole firewall.
I know it would be easier to give them their own modem and set up the dial in on their PC, however I want my Linux box to be the proxy server. At the moment the only reason I have any form of 'doze on my PC is to supply the proxy and dod function.
I know there has been a lot of discussion on this, however I can't seem to find any links to it.
This may help:

Although Mandrake based it's pretty good. Uses pppd and was written to solve
the same problem you have.
