The modem and config files that dialup and authenticate PAP on
Slackware 10.2 w/ 2.4.31 can dialup but not authenticate PAP on
Slackware 12.2 w/ 2.6.21.5 kernel. This has been driving me nutz for
a while. Am I missing something in this 2.6 kernel? Any ideas
outside of getting DSL or cable?

Thanks, Walt R.

Are you sure it's an authentication problem? What (exactly!) do the log
files say?

Oh, and is the ppp module loaded?

I would say that authentication failed The loaded ppp modules are

Had to find a floppy the usb harddrive is no longer recognized on

Thanks for any help you can give me. Walt R.

Everything looks good up to there, but that's terrible because
ConfNak is supposed to tell you which option was bad, but there's
nothing inside the quotes! Hmmm... Maybe that means your password is
wrong in the pap-secrets file...

What I would try is to run Slackware's pppsetup again, what's there to
lose, your current setup is horked...

Probably just need to load up a few more USB modules. That's the beauty
of using the distribution kernel. Module module who's got the module...

Username and password are correct.. There is nothing between the
quotes when 10.2 authenticates PAP.
[LCP ConfAck id=0x2 <mru 1524> <asyncmap 0xa0000> <auth pap> <pcomp>
<accomp> <endpoint [MAC:00:c0:7b:9a:c5:bf]>]
sent [PAP AuthReq id=0x1 user="wmreinemer" password=<hidden>]
rcvd [PAP AuthAck id=0x1 ""]
PAP authentication succeeded

The same config files and modem connect and authenticate on 10.2, but
NOT on 12.0
Is this 2.6.*.* kernel missing something, or is this pppd hosed?

Restarted the rc.hotplug script, to recognize the USB-HD.

I have no idea how many times I have run pppsetup on this box.
pppsetup comes up with the same config files that are on the 10.2 box.

pppsetup, one more time :-)

Thanks anyway - Walt R.

Another thing you could try is installing the 10.2 ppp package on your
12.0 box, that might work (provided there are no library conflicts)...

Ran pppsetup again with the same results, System can dialup, yet ppp
will not authenticate PAP on 12.0.

I have not messed with udev.

I guess Slackware 12.0 is broke.

Thanks anyway - Walt R.

You realize that you are talking to the Res forger? Put him in your
killfile and move on.

If you still have the old install, compare the files that get constructed
from pppsetup.

For the six years I've been running Linux (and that would specifically
be Slackware), I used information and a script from my previous ISP.
I just kept moving it, and when I changed ISPs a few years ago, just
changed the pertinent information by hand edit.

Last week, I decided to go "legit" and try pppsetup. The file
it issued for pppscript did not work. It would dial okay, but fail
when trying to authenticate.

I still haven't figured out exactly what went wrong, but when I
changed the "AT" command to the modem before the dialing, it started
working.

I suspect you won't be so lucky, but I felt this was odd enough
that it seems a potential help given the way things seem to
be going.

This is Slack 10. Having done that with success, I booted
to Slack 12 (that I haven't yet swithced over to) and ran pppsetup.
I didn't write down if I had to hand edit something or not, but
I was able to use the proper script to dial with.
