Hm, to be honest, I'm totally clueless about the way Debian handles ppp (I used to use Slackware), but I'll try to help anyway. (Just don't take anything I say here for granted). The way I did in Slackware is, there was /etc/ppp. There were what are called 'chat' scripts (ie. scripts for the 'chat' program). This program handled the authentication process. Now i'm totally unaware if Debian uses this one too, but if it does, try to find these scripts (wild guess: /etc/ppp :D) Now, make different ones for different ISP's, and then refer to them in the ppp-on (or pon) scripts. There, I hope that helps. Maybe 'man chat' will help too, especially for configuring PAP/CHAP differences. -- scratch (totally clueless now) --:: Nico Galoppo ::-------------------------------------------------- --:: scratch at ace.ulyssis.student.kuleuven.ac.be ::----------------- :: :: --:::::::::::::::::::::::::: Linux - Free power for the masses :::::::
