Hello all. I just installed mandrake 7.1 on a pIII 733 with 128 MB ram.
All went well, and I was able to start using the box right away, with one
notable exception. I cannot get KPPP to connect to my isp at all. I use an
external USR sportster 56K on com1. The setup for the account seems normal,
I try to connect, and it dials, handshakes, tries to authenticate and I get
an error that the connection terminated unexpectedly.
here is the contents of the log file:
Sep 10 23:22:09 compound pppd[843]: pppd 2.3.11 started by root, uid 0

Sep 10 23:22:13 compound pppd[843]: Sent 429 bytes, received 373 bytes.
Sep 10 23:22:13 compound pppd[843]: Exit.
The IPX Control error has me just plain confused, and the not authorized to
use remote address thing bugs me as well. Any thoughts? I think the remote
address thing may be the crux of the issue, but i would appreciate any
feedback and/or suggestions.
Thanks,
Bill Bunyan
