Hi,

I have three different ISPs and I manage the pppd settings 
for each by placing an ISP.options file in /etc/ppp/peers
and call this file from the pppd script itself. I can't
seem to find out how to use an options such as "auth" - as
soon as I include it, I'm presented with the following
showstopper warning:

    The remote system is required to authenticate itself
    but I /usr/sbin/pppd: couldn't find any secret (password) which
    would let it use an IP address.

Same thing happens if I use "noauth" or "require-pap" etc.    

To be sure I have pap-secrets and chap-secrets in place in
/etc/ppp.

Okay, I can simply exclude these options and things work
but I'm curious to know why this happens and how to
correct it.
    

Regards,

Morten
