Has anyone noticed a specific and limited breakage in user-ppp in 4.0-Stable? I've been using ppp/pppctl to log in to my clients' system for a long time; they use SecurID to authenticate accessors. So, I've set up the chat stuff in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf to use the "\\P" for the authkey, and I script pppctl to set the authkey to the value I type in from my little card, and off it goes. Well, until I upgraded to 4.0, it has worked flawlessly; but since then, it seems to mess up the authkey during the "chatting" -- in the ppp log, I can see everything proceeding as before, and when the time comes for it to send the authkey, it says "\P" (like it should), then the server comes back with "Authorization denied, you son of a motherless goat" and I'm hosed. If I use ppp manually, everything works fine. I've tried using just one backslash before the 'P', to no avail. Has anyone noticed this before? Is it pilot error, something ppp has upgraded and I've missed it in the man page? Or in the list archives? -- Matt Meola KC0DXW http://www.qsl.net/kc0dxw Bailey, CO ARES D6 AEC To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
