It does not work for you; it DOES work for me. >I want to connect a Linux-box-2.x using PAP. Sorry if this was not clear >in my mailing. It was clear; I just wanted to know if you had gotten PAP working at all, to anything... I notice the following: (a) You use "auth". This means "require the peer to authenticate". You want to authenticate yourself to the peer, not the other way around. (b) You use "-pap". This means "don't agree to authenticate using PAP". But you *do* want to authenticate using PAP. (c) You use "+chap". This means "require the peer to authenticate using CHAP". See my comments for (a). (d) The peer wants to authenticate using CHAP regardless of what your ISP is saying.
