Hello, I am experiencing a weird thing: I have got KDE kppp perfectly working but when it comes to use pppd directly with the pon script even from root pppd won't start. I have the following /var/log/ppp.log:

Any clue?
Is this for a VPN connection? When I had this problem, I was forgetting to enable "refuse-eap"
The server to which I was trying to connect would, for some reason, offer EAP and then refuse to authenticate with it. I simply had to disable it and then CHAP authentication mysteriously started functioning.
