Hi: I recently took a BSNL dialup subscription and I find that the pppd settings that worked with VSNL dialup, don't work with BSNL!
Does anybody have idea, how to correctly configure ppp for BSNL dialup. While talking to their overly helpful support staff, they seem to know of windows settings only, where they insisted, that I don't use Linux! However, I tried dialing in from a friends machine (a M$ windows) and found that any login and password information, entered at the dialup screen leads to authentication failure. e.g. my userid is : [EMAIL PROTECTED] my passwd is : blr123 Additionally, if I just entered the fields in the configuration settings, then a direct (apparently) login happens after 2 beeps. This experiment was undertaken to make sure that BSNL indeed activated my account! Calling up the BSNL office and talking to the sysadmin proved to be of no help, however, he said that they are using Windows machines for handling dialup accounts! I will appreciate a response, in case somebody has taken a look at this closely. thanks Tom. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!
