It affects authname, authkey, and phone strings as well. Phone numbers with '*' sequences failed for me, as well my authname and authkey settings (which contained non-alphanumerics). Encasing these strings in "" worked for me. Since your ISP is asking for PAP, I would do the following: set login set authname "yourLoginName" set authkey "yourPassword" If the empty 'set login' fails to work for you, try set login "ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 ogin:--ogin: \\U word: \\P" Maybe somebody can make this new qouting behavior more clear in an example in the sample ppp.conf installed in /etc? Just so other new users of 4.0 won't get bitten by the same thing. > -----Original Message----- > From: Thomas Dean [SMTP:tomdean@ix.netcom.com] > Sent: Wednesday, February 16, 2000 10:00 AM > To: current@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: Re: Problems with Recent PPP Changes > > Thanks for the reply. > > > Date: Wed, 16 Feb 2000 01:16:25 -0700 > > From: Warner Losh > > > > In message <200002160421.UAA00933@ix.netcom.com> Thomas Dean writes: > > : What change to ppp did I miss? > > > > There were some quoting and comment recognition changes at one > > point... > > > > That is the problem.
