Managing Serial Networks Using UUCP and PPP in Oracle^® Solaris 11.3

How to Configure Users of the Dial-in Server

1. Become an administrator on the dial-in server.

   For more information, see Using Your Assigned Administrative Rights in Securing Users and Processes in Oracle Solaris 11.3.

2. Create a new account on the dial-in server for each remote PPP user.

   For instructions about creating a new user, see Task Map for Setting Up and Managing User Accounts by Using the CLI in Managing User Accounts and User Environments in Oracle Solaris 11.3.

3. Create for each caller a $HOME/.ppprc file that contains various options that are specific to the user's PPP session.

   For example, you might create the following .ppprc file for pppuser.

   $ cat /export/home/pppuser/.ppprc
   noccp

   noccp turns off compression control on the link.
