--------------BB1E0CE443143BFE191E2AD1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi, I am trying to hook up to At&T worldnet using FreeBSD. I have modified the files in /etc and ppp directories and setup my ppp.conf file. I can dial out okay, but the connection is dropped with the message : Warning : DialModem : Login failed. Is this something to do with my login name and password or is it something else? Also, when I start ppp, does it need a password in my ppp.secret file? If any of you have tried to hook up to providers like AT&T, I would like to request your help. Thanks, Srinivasan. -- ========================================================= Srinivasan Iyengar Siemens Microelectronics Inc. Voice (408)895-5080 2480 North First Street, #220.
