Re: Wierd ppp error message...

[Jason Watson <flagg@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Try adding 'noauth' to your options file in /etc/ppp.

Funny thing about PPP using PAP or CHAP, authentication can go both ways.
Unless you go out of your way to set up a server and client to do so, it
would be uncommon to find that sort of situation.  Nearly all dial-up ISP
accounts support one way authentcation i.e. (they authenticating your
account).
