i didn't use it to make my PPP server (i wish i knew about it and i wouldof) the only way i can get mgetty/auto_ppp to work is 1) without authentication([EMAIL PROTECTED]@$@) and it auto assigns an ip 2) with authentication and it seems the client has to specify the IP. auto assignment worked fine in win98se, but failed in nt and win95osr2.5. for those that may know how to FIX my problem, this is my config for mgetty: /AutoPPP/ - a_ppp /usr/sbin/pppd auth login debug crtscts modem ms-dns 208.222.179.31 lock proxyarp 216.128.8.22:216.128.8.254 if i remove the auth and login, auto assignment works fine in win95osr2 and nt (and 98se) -- and it lets any user login doesn't matter waht login/pass is used, if auth and login is there ..auto assignment of an IP doesnt appear to work for nt4/win95osr2. nate ----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]-- Vice President Network Operations http://www.firetrail.com/ Firetrail Internet Services Limited http://www.aphroland.org/ Everett, WA 425-348-7336 http://www.linuxpowered.net/ Powered By: http://comedy.aphroland.org/ Debian 2.1 Linux 2.0.36 SMP http://yahoo.aphroland.org/ -----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]-- On Thu, 28 Oct 1999 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I'm trying to call in on my Linux server (ISDN Teles 16.3) with a windows 98 > machine (also ISDN Teles 16.3).
