Dear all, Frist, I would like thanks Michael to answer my question. Second, I was checked the web-site below but still don't work for me to set-up Dial-in Server. My status now is when I dial to the dial-in server and the modem which is connected to server will answer the call. After that I can see the dial-up connection status from my windows machine try to vertfy the username and password, then the connect from the modem which is connected to server will suddenly disconnect and the error message it show on windows machine is disconnected from dial-up computer. Do someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong on the these setting below? Please help.....thanks. login.config ------------- /AutoPPP/ - - /usr/sbin/pppd auth -chap +pap login debug options ------- lock -detach crtscts netmask 255.255.255.0 asyncmap 0 modem proxyarp options.ttyS1 ------------- ppp-server:ppp01 pap-secrets ----------- # Secrets for authentication using PAP # client server secret IP addresses * * "" 10.0.0.3 ppplogin -------- #!/bin/sh mesg n stty -echo /usr/sbin/pppd silent auth -chap +pap login Thanks and regards, Kevin Chan ---- Original Message ----- From: "Michael R.
