Hi;
Microsoft itself does'nt impelement such a thing on NT ppp server.
What's your problem searching for such a solution? Do you want to Log in an
NT domain through a Linux box PPP server?
Regards
Behrad

Subject: PPP with MS Clients
Is it possible to return extra data during negotiation of a ppp connection?
I know that over ethernet, DHCP can return a domain suffix to the client.
Is there a way of returning the same information to a ppp host (MS Windows
95) from the ppp server during negotiation.
Does the ppp protocol and / or ppp client software on MS clients understand
that information if it is sent in some way?
This is to solve a problem with MS clients dialing in, they either seem to
either 'guess' a domain name or have none,
depending on if they have ever been connected direcly to the network via an
ethernet card.
Name lookups for host fail if they have no domain suffix, I'm using a recent
version of BIND for DNS that no longer allows
the domain_suffix parameter, so the client has to add the domain for the
lookupts itself.
Any help solving this appreciated,
J.
