I am trying to configure a linux machine to accept dial in connections
using PAP:
I have tried many many configurations, and have read many many documents
for
PPP including:
PPP-Howto
DHCP-Howto
DHCPD-Howto
Net3-Howto
Net2-Howto
the SETUP, README, README.linux files with ppp versions 2.2.0f && 2.3.5.
The Intranet Server Howto
the Networking overview Howto
In one configuration, I added pppd to the users shell and let mgetty, vs.
0.99 (know there is a 1.0.0 out now)
handle the connection with the normal login.config default
* - - /bin/login @
pppd found and read the following files.
/etc/ppp/options
-detach
modem
crtscts
lock
ms-dns 192.168.1.20
ms-dns 192.168.1.80
ms-wins 192.168.30.74
ms-dns 192.168.30.34
proxyarp
/etc/ppp/options.cua0 (<- my first modem)
Without PAP, this configuration required a login script for the client
and worked great.
I do not want a login script on the client_ I want everything handled
through the PAP authentication.
So I adjusted the pppd configuration files and mgetty's login.config
mgetty: login.config I added.
/AutoPPP/ - - /usr/sbin/pppd @
pppd: In the options file I added
auth
-chap
+pap
login
debug
kdebug 7
pppd: The options.cua0 file contains
192.168.1.210:192.168.1.220
After adding the lines to options, and login.config
I cannot authenticate with PAP
So I added a /etc/ppp/pap-secrets file
and in the pap-secrets file I added
<login name which is also computer name> <Server name> <login
passwd>
With everything that I did, the one thing I didn't do was connect using
PAP authentication?
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Another question: Is there a way to get pppd to referance DHCPd to get an
IP address to assign.
Is that a good idea or would / should someone want something like this.
Thanks in advance.
