Its been a little while since I played with Marinetti, however, I think you will want to use the SLIP link layer, *not* the Direct Connect link layer. IIRC, the Direct Connect link layer is for creating a connection using the Windows (2000 or less) Direct Connection feature.
The DirectConnect link layer is more for being able to directly connect two machines running Marinetti. There was another link layer written by Andrew Roughan that allowed connecting using the Windows Direct Connection feature by adding support for MS-CHAP2 authentication but I can't remember what it was called.
The SLIP, PPP or PPP (scripted) link layers are better to use when trying to connect to a Linux box. I haven't tried to do this sort of thing for about 10 years but I seem to recall using slipd or pppd on the Linux side after configuring the serial port appropriately.
