Hello, I had a similar-sounding problem just the other day, and Andreas' suggestion worked splendidly to solve my problem. It is a longstanding issue with kppp. The other thing you'll want to do is check permissions - try running kppp as root ("kdesu kppp") to make sure that's not the source of the problem. Otherwise, I added my user to the "dip" and "dialout" groups, and that seemed to give it all the power it needed.
Hope that helps, Christopher Martin On Thursday January 8 2004 07:03, Pedro Quaresma de Almeida wrote: > Hi > > I am trying to use kppp as a friendly interface to my dialup > connection, the goal is to provide a easy to use program to all the > users of a Debian system. > > I have managed to configure de dialup connection through the > pppconfig program, pon and poff are working fine, but kppp is not. > > I have tried the automatic configuration (Portugal,Netc), and the > manual configuration, in both situations I receive the following > message: > > > "The remote system is required to authenticate itself..." > > and nop :( > > i) what are (and where) the logs of kppp? > > ii) I read the html-manual and there the speak about using the ppp > configuration, but they don't explain how.
