Re: PPP is still a disaster. :(. Please Help. :)
God, this was a pain in my arse when i had to get chap working. /etc/ppp.chatscript for ME is as follows: snip all crap, up to last 2 lines ATDT*70,4214368 CONNECT ^^^ Connect here is important, because it then makes it WAIT before it sends authentication requests. /etc/ppp.options_out is as follows: +ua /etc/ppp/chapchoice defaultroute /dev/modem 115200 persist ^^^ /etc/ppp/chatchoice contains the login/pass info for choice.net, the format is as follows: username password After that pon should work correctly. I must admit it took me a long while of using my isp's radias servers until i figured it out one day, now i connect the digital and much more faster modem pool :. Hope it works, if not, send an email, i'll try and help.. *** dA' Phucilage Phactory*Yesturday upon the stair,* *I met a guy who wasn't there,* *He wasn't there again today, * [EMAIL PROTECTED]*I think he's from the CIA. * *** author unknown -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Now I am somewhat confused as CHAP != PAP, but I have never used a chap authentication, so this may be right. Please ask your ISP if authentication really is CHAP or if it is PAP.

Any ideas on how to fix this? Are you using a plugn'play modem? And what do you mean by nothing would recognize it? Now, (having booted off the disk), I check my /etc/ppp/ and am disappointed to find that I have no scripts already there that I can Try looking in /usr/doc/ppp* for some examples and readmes. beautifully, and logs in, detects a ppp, starts my ppp, and then disconnects, and says the ppp deamon exited with error code 2. I check the ppp-errors file, and it says that the /etc/ppp/ppp-connect file doesn't exist. Now, I take out the line 'connect /etc/ppp/ppp-connect' from the options file in /etc/ppp/ and dial again. This time it exits with error code 1. The ppp log file also says: The /etc/ppp/ppp-connect file is the one pppd uses to connect, IIRC, so without it, pppd has no idea what to do with itself. ppp-connect should be a script that dials the modem and logs into the remote server, I think. PS: Assuming I ever get this to work, does anyone know if Apache or any other web servers will work even though I've got a dynamic IP? I don't think apache will care. The problem lies in the fact that in order to connect to your apache server, I've got to know your IP address, or your hostname (which is essentially the same thing, because it'll get resolved to your ip address), and those'll keep changing, so getting people to _find_ your machine might be tough.

Just as an aside, people with dynamic IP can use the dynamic IP DNS service offered by Monolith, and then other systems will always be able to find you whatever your IP is. It's free.
