Peter did the recient upgrade to 2.3.0, and I was going to help test these changes out as I normally use pppd... also, are you sure that auth in /etc/ppp/options is the ONLY cause? I just added auth to my (previously non-existant) /etc/ppp/options file on a -current box and I got: bash# echo auth > /etc/ppp/options bash# pppd pppd: peer authentication required but no suitable secret(s) found pppd: for authenticating any peer to us (boron.nike.efn.org) other than the need to remove some redundant newlines... I don't see a problem... now if I add a secret to the mix, it does core dump on me... I'm not sure when I can get to it... is there anyway you can debug the problem yourself?? the problem should solely be in the userland part of pppd... -- John-Mark Gurney Modem/FAX: +1 541 683 6954 Cu Networking Live in Peace, destroy Micro$oft, support free software, run FreeBSD
