Hello Bob,
Under MuLinux try help ppp and configure it.
assume 2 Linux-Boxes:
One has the IP-Adresse 192.168.0.1 (B1) The other one has IP 192.168.0.2 (B2). If not, configure the IP-Adress to any useful adress and use these adresses for the use with ppp. .
When You sit at B1 the local adress is 192.168.0.1 the remote for that B1 is B2
When You sit at B2 than local is the adress of B2 the remote is B1
So for example at B1 type:
pppd -detach crtscts lock 192.168.0.1:192.168.0.2 /dev/ttyS3 38400 &
at B2 type
pppd -detach crtscts lock 192.168.0.2:192.168.0.1 /dev/ttyS0 38400 &
after that: at B1 or/and B2
you can try to ping to each other by "ping 192.168.0.x"
If this works, than take FTP or NFS to exchange the needed files.
hope this helps
Michael
