First, Michael, please format your mail messages. This one came on one
long line of text, which is very difficult to read.
Next, verify that your NT RAS server is using, or allows, PAP
authentication. Before you connect with PPP, give PPP the command "set
openmode active". This will tell the BSD PPP that it must initiate the
PPP connection conversation.
