Hi!
I have a RedHat 5.0 with kernel 2.0.31.
I've set up ppp using netcfg, and with PAP turned on this works fine,
both when enabling the connection from netcfg and when using 'ifup ppp0'
from /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts.
I've then installed the diald RPM found in the contrib area on the
RedHat FTP server (diald-0_16_4-1_i386.rpm) and the diald config RPM
(diald-config-0_1-1_i386.rpm) at the same place.
Diald works fine and starts calling my ISP when I try to access some
internet address, but it fails logging in. Only a few seconds after the
modems has stopped handshaking, the line is dropped.
As far as I can see, this is related to diald not using PAP, but I'm not
100% sure.
I've experienced this problem before, and back then, it was caused by
diald not using the same connect-scripts/pppd-options as netcfg, and
because of that not using PAP (and my ISP doesn't accept anything but
PAP).
The problem is, I've forgot how I fixed it back then.
As far as I can see, it's related to the diald-connect script in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts
I've tried to make som small changes to this scripts to force diald to
use the same script (ifup) as netcfg, but I can't get it to work.
Anyone with a solution ?
