Only just started using linux and am not farmilar with it or its systems, but my 
friends are.

My problem is, Having installed Mandrake 7.1 on my system, I want to connect to BT 
INTERNET, this is a UK ISP, I can't get it to authorise me, it dials, goes to logging 
on to network, then drops, with message, "can't gain autherisation",  I 'think' its 
cos BT uses NT. We have got it to work with Redhat and Suse 7, but we can't get it to 
work with LM7.1, can anyone help, or know how to fix this problem, I have no idea what 
info you require, what I can say is I have checked the following

1, Modem, works and dials ok, and will connect to other ISP's
2, Check with BT to see if there is any help available, NOPE!
3, Checked all passwords, made sure they are correct, 
4, Checked conf files, and put details in the "secrets" conf file, that "redhat" uses, 
to see if that fixed it, NOPE.

I am at a loss, can someone please point me in the right directions, surely someone 
has got this to work.

Thanks in advance.

Leon
