>Description:
When a user logs into a pppd server running (as of 25-Jul-1998, fwiw)
with 'login' set, that user will not be able to connect to the server;
pppd logs 'PAP authentication failed' and both sides are seeing the
correct password.
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to login to a pppd-server without attaching the following mod:
>Fix:
around line 688 (or so; I added in some debugging to find this) there is a line that reads
if (uselogin && ret == UPAP_AUTHACK)
change the UPAP_AUTHACK to UPAP_AUTHNAK and it'll work like a charm.
you have to change your /etc/ppp/pap-secrets file though, to include the authorized IP addresses.
