…Asterisk does not provide a dialup server.

I Just follow what this guide does and it tells me to do this

That’s for setting up a voice network. There’s a separate section, not involving Asterisk, for dial-up.

I guess if you connected the ATA to the modem… then it would flow through Asterisk…

Anyway, this uses a Linux distribution package. Where it puts things, the permissions, etc, are up to it. Someone else may have experience with it.

Do you know how to do this because first thing i need this to use my Ms-Dos and to register my Windows 98 services and it’s fun to have a old telephone and i want to test browsing with this

Conceptually, the PAP2T is a SIP to analog phone adapter. If you can log into it and set up the SIP credentials than should be capable of communicating with your asterisk install. You will also need a SIP connection to the outside world so you can connect the calls between the outside world and your analog phone, something like Flowroute, Twilio or Ipcomms. You can likely edit the files if you use su when starting your editor. I’ve never used a PAP2T and I’ve not had an analog phone in my house for probably 12 years so not much help there.
