hi,

i tried what you suggested, but still no joy :(

my pppd is saying that it cant find the CHAP secrets file, even though it's
in /etc/ppp/chap-secrets.....i copied my chap-secrets to pap-secrets too,
but it seems to want the chap one, but doesn't know where to look for it...

any more suggestions appreciated!

tim
