Each line should look something like this... steve somepasswd 204.244.190.9/32 You'll note that I'm using static IP. I only use iijppp for my own account, regular users get dynamic IP with pppd. If you want a dynamic IP setup with iijppp you should check the man page (IIRC, it's not hard). One thing I have noticed is that the Microsoft dialer (the one that comes with Windows95 and the Win3.1 version of Internet Exploter) won't allow passwords longer than 8 characters. Well, it'll allow them, but they won't work. It took me a while to figure that one out. :-/ ===================================================================== | Steve Reid - SysAdmin & Pres, EDM Web (http://www.edmweb.com/) | | Email: steve@edmweb.com Home Page: http://www.edmweb.com/steve/ | | PGP (2048/9F317269) Fingerprint: 11C89D1CD67287E68C09EC52443F8830 | | -- Disclaimer: JMHO, YMMV, TANSTAAFL, IANAL. -- | ===================================================================:)
