When I try to run ppp in direct mode, or use it as a user shell (this is
assuming that the user is member of group network), I get an error message:

You may not use ppp in this mode with this label.

I am trying to make this config do static IP.

Here is my ppp.conf file:

default:
        set debug phase lcp chat
        set timeout 0

rgppp:
        set ifaddr 204.214.110.223 204.214.119.254 255.255.255.0
        enable proxy

Here is my ppp.linkup file:

rgppp:
        add 204.214.119.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 HISADDR


When user rgppp logs in, his shell is: /etc/ppp/ppp-rgppp

Here is the ppp-rgppp script:

#!/bin/sh
IDENT=`echo $0 | sed -e 's/^.*-\(.*\)$/\1/'`
CALLEDAS="$IDENT"
TTY=`tty`
if [ x$IDENT = xdialup ]; then
        IDENT=`basename $TTY`
fi
echo "PPP for $CALLEDAS on $TTY"
echo "Starting PPP for $IDENT"
exec /usr/sbin/ppp -direct -alias $IDENT


After I telnet to greymalkin.com, login as rgppp, I get this:

login: rgppp

PPP for rgppp on /dev/ttyp2

Connection closed by foreign host.

What am I doing wrong?
