I need help setting up the dialins for my server. A newbie here of
course. Only a year into it and not at all a programmer

You have to edit the file /etc/inittab to allow dial-ins. That means
you have to say your system to answer incoming phonecalls. Therefore
you need a line like this:

d1:23:respawn:/sbin/bgetty -hit60 38400,19200,9600,2400,1200 modem

After this you have to send the initprogram a SIGHUP:

kill -1 1

This makes init to reread the configurationfile,

You can setup your server for UUCP connections. I also heard
of mgetty or whatever its called although I'm not sure how it works.
Hope this helps. :-)
