My apologies if I'm out to lunch on this. I inquired yesterday about connecting as a client to an NT 4 server with ppp. I couldn't get either pppd or iijppp to successfully authenticate. I believe that this is due to the Microsoft Chap extensions on the NT server which encrypts the username/password. Anyways, I have turned off those extensions on the server and expect everything to work fine but in the course of exploring this I discovered some patches to pppd to support the MS extensions. These are at ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/network/serial/ppp/ppp-2.2.0f.tar.gz. There is a README.mschap80 in this distribution and it includes patches to make pppd use the MS extensions. I took a quick glance in -current and didn't see any indication that these patches have been applied. I don't expect to need them and don't have the experience to pursue this any further but I thought I'd send this in case anybody else has a need for this information. -Steve On Sun, 2 Mar 1997, Stephen Mathezer wrote: > > We just moved our dialin server to an NT 4 server and of course I am > struggling to successfully connect using either iijppp or pppd. > > I searched the Email archives and discovered lots of questions but few > answers. > > Can somebody tell me first whether it is possible to connect to an NT 4 > server using either pppd or iijppp. Secondly of course, how exactly is > this done. > > The NT server is of course trying to use chap and does not provide a > login: prompt. > > I do have access to the NT server if there is something I can change at > that end to make things work better. > > Thanks for any help. > > -Steve > > > This is what I get running pppd -d: > > Mar 2 14:53:17 cygnus pppd[292]: pppd 2.2.0 started by root, uid 0 > Mar 2 14:53:17 cygnus pppd[292]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/cuaa1 > Mar 2 14:53:18 cygnus pppd[292]: Modem hangup > Mar 2 14:53:17 cygnus pppd[292]: pppd 2.2.0 started by root, uid 0 > Mar 2 14:53:17 cygnus pppd[292]: Using interface ppp0 > Mar 2 14:53:17 cygnus pppd[292]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/cuaa1 > Mar 2 14:53:17 cygnus pppd[292]: sent [LCP ConfReq id=0x1 <mru 1500> > <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0x89035451> <pcomp> <accomp>] > Mar 2 14:53:18 cygnus pppd[292]: rcvd [LCP ConfReq id=0x0 <asyncmap 0x0> > <auth chap 80> <magic 0x3991> <pcomp> <accomp>] > Mar 2 14:53:18 cygnus pppd[292]: sent [LCP ConfRej id=0x0 <auth chap 80>] > Mar 2 14:53:18 cygnus pppd[292]: rcvd [LCP ConfAck id=0x1 <mru 1500> > <asyncmap 0x0> <magic 0x89035451> <pcomp> <accomp>] > Mar 2 14:53:18 cygnus pppd[292]: rcvd [LCP TermReq id=0x1 00 00 02 dc] > Mar 2 14:53:18 cygnus pppd[292]: sent [LCP TermAck id=0x1] > Mar 2 14:53:18 cygnus pppd[292]: Hangup (SIGHUP) > Mar 2 14:53:18 cygnus pppd[292]: Modem hangup > Mar 2 14:53:18 cygnus pppd[292]: Exit. > > >
