Hi,
I have had a working configuration working on RedHat 5.2. I now am
trying to install diald on another machine running RedHat 6.1.
I have managed to use pppd on the new machine with success but I am
having problems with diald.
Using diald 0.99.1 I have modprobe entry errors in my log file:
modprobe: can't locate module tap0
modprobe: can't locate module tap1
etc
and
modprobe: can't locate module char-major-108
I have placed alias char-major-108 ppp_generic into /etc/conf.modules
but the main problem appears to be:
The remote system is required to authenticate itself but I couldn't find
any secret (password) which would let it use an IP address.
I don't understand this message because it seems to indicate to me that
I'm requiring my ISP to give me a password; what configuration is making
ppp think it should require this? Much the same configuration files
didn't have this outcome on my RH5.2 system.
I have put my password in pap-secrets and I have also put a blank user
and password line to hopefully allow my ISP access anyway but to no
avail.
I presume the modprobe problem is somesort of kernel compilation
problem, can anyone tell me what configuration I should be looking for
if I recompile the kernel?
Has anyone any ideas on the authentication problem?
kernel-2.2.12
ppp-2.3.10
