win95 logon to Linux PPP server
bobo bogdan
Uff.....Here is a big problem....
On my Red Hat 5.2 box I have set up a dial-in PPP server for 8 tel
lines.
Everything is OK (it works fine) excepting a small but important
problem: when a Win95 user wants to connect with valid “user” and
“password” the server deconect him because he has an invalid password.
If he make a connection with “Bring up terminal window after dialing”
enabled and log on from terminal, it is OK.
Why???
Why the Linux box don’t accept the password from Windows client?
If you know a way to correct this situation, please send me some words.
Please......
Thanks in advance
Bogdan

don't set in windows require encrypted passswd
in pap-secrets add a line like this:
* * "" *
also in chap-secrets
add to ppp/options :
login
auth
+pap
debug
----
'debug' is only for debuggin info, you can see it in /var/log/ppp.log
or var/log/debug or /var/log/daemon* etc...
also your user is not in the group of dialout (check pppd owner/mod)

you did, how's the script? And Carlos, is there a way to use that "advanced"
ppp authentication (secrets etc) from Windows dial-up clients?

You use pap-secrets or you want to use /etc/passwd file?
If you use /etc/passwd you must use parameter "login" when you start the
pppd.

No. window$ ppp is really crap.

to a unix host. Usually, enabling the generic login script does the trick.
