We have a client trying to connect to an ISP whose terminal login screen
is broken (there is a long story behind this but it appears that it's
easier to find a work-around than to get them to fix it). What I am
trying to do is to force login through PAP or CHAP at the client end,
rather than negotiating login through a chat script.
There is an option called 'require-chap' which in the man page states
'Require the peer to authenticate itself using CHAP'. Since the peer is
never authenticating itself (the peer is the ISP), I am wandering
whether this is appropriate.
Basically, a Windows box with the setting 'log in using terminal window'
also fails to work but when you disable this it works like a charm. Does
anybody know how to reproduce this behaviour under Linux/pppd?
Thank you kindly for any help you can offer.
