When I upgraded from 2.2.6-Release to 3.1-Release, pppd magically started on the first try. I thought 2.2.6 getty supported this, but in my case it didn't. I have a follow-up question on this setup. Right now, dial in users have regular accounts. Do I have to do this? In other words, does a dialin pppd user have to send login and password, then "ppp", or can they simply start sending ppp (e.g. PAP/CHAP when auth is specified) and have FreeBSD only use pap|chap-secrets to authenticate the remote end?
