Hi Can anyone give me a clue as to what I am doing wrong? I keep getting failure to authenticate messages. the following is from the kppp details box:
Sep 26 05:42:22 deblnx pppd[1178]: The remote system is required to authenticate itself Sep 26 05:42:22 deblnx pppd[1178]: but I couldn't find any suitable secret (password) for it to use to do so. Sep 26 05:42:22 deblnx pppd[1178]: (None of the available passwords would let it use an IP address.) I went to kde/kppp site and read there that commenting out the 'auth' line in /etc/ppp/otions could be a fix but it wasn't. So I copied the /etc/ppp/options file from my SuSE distro but that didn't work either. Here's the results of pon deblnx:~# pon highstream.net Serial connection established.: using channel 2 Using interface ppp0 Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS4 sent [LCP ConfReq id=0x1 <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0xcf506a80> <pcomp> <accomp>] rcvd [LCP ConfReq id=0x1 < 00 04 00 00> <mru 1524> <asyncmap 0xa0000> <auth chap MD5> <pcomp> <accomp> <mrru 1524> <endpoint [MAC:00:c0:7b:8c:49:bf]> < 1b 04 02 02>] sent [LCP ConfRej id=0x1 < 00 04 00 00> <mrru 1524> < 1b 04 02 02>] rcvd [LCP ConfAck id=0x1 <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0xcf506a80> <pcomp> <accomp>] rcvd [LCP ConfReq id=0x2 <mru 1524> <asyncmap 0xa0000> <auth chap MD5> <pcomp> <accomp> <endpoint [MAC:00:c0:7b:8c:49:bf]>] sent [LCP ConfNak id=0x2 <auth pap>] rcvd [LCP ConfReq id=0x3 <mru 1524> <asyncmap 0xa0000> <auth pap> <pcomp> <accomp> <endpoint [MAC:00:c0:7b:8c:49:bf]>] sent [LCP ConfAck id=0x3 <mru 1524> <asyncmap 0xa0000> <auth pap> <pcomp> <accomp> <endpoint [MAC:00:c0:7b:8c:49:bf]>] sent [LCP EchoReq id=0x0 magic=0xcf506a80] sent [PAP AuthReq id=0x1 user="[EMAIL PROTECTED],net" password=<hidden>] rcvd [LCP EchoRep id=0x0 magic=0x0] rcvd [PAP AuthNak id=0x1 ""] PAP authentication failed sent [LCP TermReq id=0x2 "Failed to authenticate ourselves to peer"] rcvd [LCP TermAck id=0x2] Connection terminated. deblnx:~# Once again thanks..JY ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ***Protect your PC from local E-Mail Application security holes*** ***Maintain your Privacy - MS Passport Free*** ***Anti SPAM "Whitelist" feature*** http://www.x-mail.net Web Based E-Mail, accessible anywhere Voice Messages, Voice Calls (VoIP), Video Conferencing, Live Chat, X-Mail Messenger, Personal Web Hosting, 128 bit SSL Secure, Calendar, Bookmarks, Forwarding, Virtual Mail Map Aliasing X-Mail Premium: 20MB Messages, 100MB Storage, SMTP, POP3, Ad Free ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anonymous Web Surfing http://www.snoopblocker.com Search http://www.teradex.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
