I am trying to dial into RoadRunner dialup service.
They unfortunately only support Windows and won't help me with Linux.
My Thinkpad WinModem is working fine and I have tested it
by dialing up to other dialup ISP accounts.
RR might be doing some proprietary things now that they
have been assimilated into the TimeWarner/AOL Mega Corp.
By looking into how it works on Windows, I see that CHAP
is being used for authentication. I also see that this
script (pasted below) is used in the "Interactive Login and Scripting"
section of the Windows RR Dialup setting.
I am wondering if anyone can help me use this script in
any way so I can connect with my Thinkpad using Debian Testing.
I am using pppconfig with the pon and poff commands.
It looks like RR uses several different providers for nationwide
dialup access.
Syslog tells me this:
pppd[9271]: rcvd [CHAP Failure id=0x2 ""]
pppd[9271]: CHAP authentication failed
pppd[9271]: sent [LCP TermReq id=0x2 "Failed to authenticate ourselves to peer"]
How can I incorporate this script below using pppconfig?
Thanks,
Andy
ps. I am not a programmer in any way but can do simple bash scripts.
