mgetty as callback client

Hello,


is it possible to catch an incomming analog call with mgetty and advise 
the pppd to authenticate at the caller (which is a server) ?
The incomming call is a callback, which is released by calling the 
server before (i can do it f.e. with a phone or minicom).
BUT, this call doesn't cause a connect, because I send my phonenumber 
(analog feature of the german telcom) and the call is rejected by the 
server.
The server recognize me by the phone number and call me back.

I have taken a look at the callback feature of the mgetty, but if I 
understand it right , it's made for an outgoing callback to a client.

Any ideas ?

XBye
