Dear Debian users,
Until now, I have been accustomed to having ppp work without the need
to understand a great deal.
However, I have not been able to get kppp to work on my new Debian
sarge/testing system in the same way it used to work on my previous
RedHat 9.0 system.
In the log window, I see the word "CONNECT" after roughly 10 seconds,
but am immediately disconnected, seemingly before ppp even begins
to authenticate itself. The errors shown are:
Jul 8 14:25:59 localhost pppd[1065]: The remote system is \
required to authenticate itself
Jul 8 14:25:59 localhost pppd[1065]: but I couldn't find any \
suitable secret (password) for it to use to do so.
Jul 8 14:25:59 localhost pppd[1065]: (None of the available \
passwords would let it use an IP address.)
A copy of ~/.kde/share/config/kppprc can be found at:
http://www.sos.cable.nu/debian/debug/kppprc.txt
Can anyone spot what is wrong or what is missing?
BTW, is there a relationship between kppp and ppp? Does kppprc
have anything to do with the files in /etc/ppp/ ? ... or
with /etc/network/interfaces ?
TIA
James
