I've gotten the bisdn-0.97 package with the PPP-patches for my Teles.S0/16.3 ISDN-card to work fine under 2.2, but only if I start isdnpppd (a somewhat modified version of pppd, that doesn't use /etc/ppp/options) with the '+ua file' option, where 'file' is the file that contains my usercode and password. Using the pap-secrets file won't work. Since the man page states that the '+ua' option is obsolecent, I'd rather use the pap-secrets file. By placing debug statements in the isdnppd source code, I found out why this is. It explicitly wants me to use my hostname (grendel.IAEhv.nl) as the first field in the pap-secrets file and tries to authenticate with that, while my provider wants me to authenticate with my normal usercode with a 'P' prepended. Is there a way to get around this? - Peter -- Peter Korsten | peter@grendel.IAEhv.nl (UUCP) | peterk@IAEhv.nl C/C++/Perl/Java hacker
