I hope someone can help. I have posted this twice before, and only recieved a
couple of comments that didn't help. I have a linux <redhat 6.0> dial in server
that works just fine with ppp-2.3.4. The problem is that it will not work with
any later release of pppd. Actually, it will partly work; users can dial-in,
but cannot send or recieve packets. As long as I use 2.3.4 everything works
great. I really want some of the features in the later releases. I think
perhaps it could be the way I have compiled ppp. I first run ./configure, then
edit the pppd/Makefile for the options that I want, ie: no ms-chap, no shadow
passwords. Then make, make install. I have tried using "make USE_MS_DNS" but
that did no good. I have found that if I remove the "auth" option from the
option file, things work ok, but the user-id is not recorded. Here is my
options file:
-detach
crtscts
lock
netmask 255.255.255.224
auth
login
asyncmap 0
modem
proxyarp
idle 1800
ms-dns xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
ms-dns xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Does anyone have any idea? Thanks in advance.
