I had the same problem. Make sure the options file has correct parameters. Change premission on pppd. Chmod 0755 pppd,chgrp pppusers on pppd and chmod u+s pppd. Check chap have the following lines: username=user secrets=* and ip=*. My problem is I can connect after solving this problem but I am not able to get out to the internet or any other place. > > From: "John Wentworth" <votum76@hotmail.com> > Date: 2003/01/30 Thu PM 04:16:02 EST > To: psyche-list@redhat.com > Subject: Dialin server connect problems > > I have a problem with my dialin server on redhat 8.0 > everything seems to be setup correctly I copied the setup from my old setup > I just recently reloading my linux server > but I get a chap auth error > Jan 30 16:05:32 linux mgetty[658]: failed dev=ttyS4, pid=658, got signal 1, > exiting > Jan 30 16:12:32 linux mgetty[681]: data dev=ttyS4, pid=681, caller='none', > conn='24000/ARQ/V34/LAPM/V42BIS', name='', cmd='/$ > Jan 30 16:12:38 linux login(pam_unix)[681]: session opened for user eric814 > by LOGIN(uid=0) > Jan 30 16:12:38 linux login -- eric814[681]: DIALUP AT ttyS4 BY eric814 > Jan 30 16:12:38 linux login -- eric814[681]: LOGIN ON ttyS4 BY eric814 > Jan 30 16:12:41 linux kernel: CSLIP: code copyright 1989 Regents of the > University of California > Jan 30 16:12:41 linux kernel: PPP generic driver version 2.4.2 > Jan 30 16:12:41 linux pppd[688]: pppd 2.4.1 started by eric814, uid 500 > Jan 30 16:12:42 linux pppd[688]: Using interface ppp0 > Jan 30 16:12:42 linux pppd[688]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS4 > Jan 30 16:12:42 linux /etc/hotplug/net.agent: assuming ppp0 is already up > Jan 30 16:12:45 linux pppd[688]: CHAP peer authentication failed for remote > host eric814 > Jan 30 16:12:46 linux pppd[688]: Hangup (SIGHUP) > Jan 30 16:12:46 linux pppd[688]: Modem hangup > Jan 30 16:12:46 linux pppd[688]: Connection terminated. > Jan 30 16:12:46 linux pppd[688]: Exit. > Jan 30 16:12:46 linux login(pam_unix)[681]: session closed for user eric814 > ppp loads fine > but then pppd fails because of chap I tryed turning off auth in the options > but still get same result > > > > > _________ > / ======= \ > / __________\ > | ___________ | > | | - | | > | | | | > | |_________| |________________ > \=____________/ ) > / """"""""""" \ / > / ::::::::::::: \ =D-\' > (_________________) > Computers are my Job > Jesus is my life and Savior > > > > > _________________________________________________________________ > Help STOP SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* > http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail > > > > -- > Psyche-list mailing list > Psyche-list@redhat.com > https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list > -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
