Hi, I'm simulating a special router that is normally connected via PPP (null modem) to a Solaris 2.6 x86 machine. The other connections on this router are data radios. Basically this router is offering the Solaris box its services (access to radios). Normally this router is configured to use CHAP to have the client (Solaris box) authenticate itself and the client is configured to provide the name and password. (As a side note, I can't touch the Solaris box's software what so ever.) My question is if I'm simulating this special router with a Linux machine, and I DO NOT want to request that the client (Solaris) authenticate itself, is it sufficient to just use the refuse-chap option when I invoke pppd? This is what I'm running on the Linux side right now: /usr/sbin/pppd /dev/ttyS0 38400 -detach defaultroute passive persist \ refuse-chap refuse-pap I'm using stock Red Hat 6.0 with pppd 2.3.7. If this seemed confusing, basically I want to not have Linux enable CHAP so that the Solaris will not try to authenticate itself. Almost like a "don't ask, don't tell" situation.
