Hello

I'm having a problem getting my pppd, running as a dial-up server, to use
the system database for password verification instead of the pap-secrets
file.

The format of my pap-secrets file is;

Username	foo.com		""	*

I have the "login" & "require-pap" option in my options file but it wont
authenticate using the system password file.

I get the following in my logs;

sent [PAP AuthNak id=0x1 "Login incorrect"]
sent [LCP TermReq id=0x2 "Authentication failed"]

BUT if I put the users password in the pap-secrets file it works just fine.

I have seen a few previous posts regarding this problem with much earlier
versions of FreeBSD,but no solutions, I'm using FreeBSD 3.1 Release.
