Just finished installing Linux and have everything up and running EXCEPT my
connection to Freeserve.
(this is not a Freeserve problem as the same happens with my Demon connection)
Hardware seems not to be the problem as I get a connection ... scripts are
exchanged and then I get rejected after Freeserve receives my password.
Yes my password is the right one!
I've tried wvdial, pon poff & pppd from the kde window ... I get the same
rejection every time.
There is something going wrong with the PAP protocols ...
.. I'm now lost in the files
pppconfig
wvdialconf
/etc/chatscripts ...
/etc/ppp/peers ...
/etc/ppp/options ...
/etc/ppp/pap-secrets ...
including the
/usr/doc/ppp-HOWTO confusethehelloutofauser
and thoroughly confused about the whole process of connecting to my provider.
I'm at the table banging/screaming stage!
Can someone HELP me with a simple IDIOT-PROOF guide on connecting up!
Regards.
