dialin-server for PC104-Board

Dec 18, 2004 6 Replies

Hi,



how do I set up a (analog) dialin-server on a PC104-Board ? The problem is that it has only 2MB memory and a 32MB Flashdisc driven by a 386SX40 processor. The board should act as a router, i.e. it answers an incoming analog call and transfers packets to eth0 (and back). I already tried installing Minix, but didn't manage to get ppp working.



As I'm posting from Germany please excuse my humble english...



Thank You very much for Your solutions

Hallo Martin,

Why not taking a small linux distribution? 2MB main memory is plenty enough, 32MB Flash is really comfortable :-). Under linux PPP should work without any trouble.

Welche Distribution würdest Du denn empfehlen ? Meine Erfahrungen mit Minix/Mulinux waren bisher nicht besonders ermutigend.

Alguém poderia traduzir? Eu entendo inglês mas não alemão.

very sorry for the german posting ...

I just asked him, what distribution he would prefer. My experiences with Minix/Mulinux were not too promising. I didn't manage to compile a network-kernel in Minix due to a lack of memory.
