PPPD is a daemon that is used to manage dial-up networking. It automatically dials up to the intenet when started, and hangs up and redials if it detects an error.
PPP is point to point protocol. It does single channel network links, usually over a long distance, or a VPN. The program that sets up and manages PPP connections is pppd.
You should use pppd to define a connection between the two computers, then normal TCP/IP networking (telnet, ftp, http, NFS, SMB etc) will work without any programming.
