Hello, Thanks for taking the time to look into this. But let's assume that in immediate future we can't change kppp that drastically - all we can do are packaging tricks to try to get it to work, with reasonable security and a minimum of user configuration as root.
Given these limitations, what do you think of the patches posted before? Is the idea of an /etc/ppp/peers/kppp-options containing "noauth" or "#noauth" reasonable? Is there some better way, not requiring users to change config files as root, again without re-writing kppp itself?
