Sometimes when I connect to my ISP and issue a ppd -d defaultroute /dev/modem 38400, I get the following msg: ---------------- [root@legolas karthik]# /usr/sbin/pppd: The remote system is required to authenticate itself but I /usr/sbin/pppd: couldn't find any suitable secret (password) for it to use to do so. [1]+ Exit 1 /usr/sbin/pppd -d defaultroute /dev/ttyS0 38400 ---------------- When I reboot and try again, its fine. Its erratic in displaying this behaviour, but I have got it more than once. What does it mean and what must I do? Thanks, -Karthik. ------------------------------------- Whatever you want to do, you have to do something else first. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
