Sorry, yes I changed the intrface to { $LocalIP } in the template and it
picks it up on the /etc/pptp.conf file
But when try to connect it bails out on ms side with 'pls chk your
password'. In e-smith messages it throws up 'pap-secrets' not available in
/etc/ppp/pap-secrets.
Does it usr pap or chap and maybe I should comment pap uot in the options
file?
