--neYutvxvOLaeuPCA Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I'm not sure how all ISPs do it, but one thing I've seen is for the ISP to = have a modem pool to which customers dial up. This modem pool uses the rad= ius protocol to authenticate connecting users. The ISP will run radiusd on= one of their servers (Maybe the FreeBSD box in this case). radiusd can be= configured to authenticate off of it's own password file, /etc/passwd, etc= , etc. -Ben ###On Sun, Feb 11, 2001 at 10:42:50PM -0800, parthasarathi biswas wrote: > Hello!! > I want to do an ISp type setup in my Freebsd System > just for learning.And what I have heard that when an > ISP creates user accounts who will acess the net,they > assign them the ppp shell.is that right if that is so > how do I do it in Freebsd.Pls advise soon.How to > assign the usrsa a ppp shell so that they have limited > rights on the system of just accessing the net through > my system.Pls advise soon. > Brgds/Partha >=20 > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!
