Package: kppp Version: 4:3.3.2-6 Severity: wishlist
In the default configuration of both kppp and pppd, kppp will fail with the following mysterious output: Aug 24 09:17:06 localhost pppd[10347]: The remote system is required to authenticate itself Aug 24 09:17:06 localhost pppd[10347]: but I couldn't find any suitable secret (password) for it to use to do so. Aug 24 09:17:06 localhost pppd[10347]: (None of the available passwords would let it use an IP address.) In the lower pane of the window titled "kppp's diagnosis (just guessing):" it says, "Unable to provide help". At the very least, it would be useful for kppp to direct the user to /usr/share/doc/kppp/README.Debian for an explanation of the (likely) problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages kppp depends on: ii kdelibs4 4:3.3.2-7 KDE core libraries ii libc6 2.3.5-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libgcc1 1:4.0.1-6 GCC support library ii libqt3c102-mt 3:3.3.4-3 Qt GUI Library (Threaded runtime v ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.6-9 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii ppp 2.4.3-20050321+2 Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) daem kppp recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
