The syslog is the following, i use chap and i change In the log pppd accepts EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) whose configuration file is /etc/ppp/srp-secrets. The format is the same as for pap-secrets and chap-secrets but while EAP supports CHAP it is not CHAP and the username and secret is expected to be in srp-secrets. man srp-secrets. If you want CHAP then you can try refusing EAP by adding the pppd option refuse-eap . However, since the peer gets to specify the authentication it may not work. > the init string of the modem and the syslog is the following (i change > in log USERNAME and PASSWORD (i think) -) > Nov 30 18:47:59 localhost pppd[3866]: Serial connection established. > Nov 30 18:47:59 localhost pppd[3866]: using channel 4 > Nov 30 18:47:59 localhost pppd[3866]: Using interface ppp0 > Nov 30 18:47:59 localhost pppd[3866]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyS0 <snip - negotiations to this point appeared reasonable> > Nov 30 18:48:01 localhost pppd[3866]: rcvd [EAP Request id=0x1 > Identity <No message>] > Nov 30 18:48:01 localhost pppd[3866]: sent [EAP Response id=0x1 > Identity <Name "USERNAME">] > Nov 30 18:48:01 localhost pppd[3866]: rcvd [LCP EchoRep id=0x0 > magic=0x136b6a18] > Nov 30 18:48:01 localhost pppd[3866]: rcvd [LCP TermReq id=0x3 I THINK > THAT HERE THERE IS THE PASSWORD] I'm not sure what your comment means. There is no sign in the log that a password was sent and TermReq is an LCP terminate request. My _guess_ is that the RAS side doesn't like your username (or password if sent) and so terminated LCP. That could be the case if srp-secrets isn't configured correctly.. > Nov 30 18:48:01 localhost pppd[3866]: LCP terminated by peer > (^Skj^X^@<M-Mt^@^@^CM-.) > Nov 30 18:48:01 localhost pppd[3866]: sent [LCP TermAck id=0x3] > Nov 30 18:48:01 localhost pppd[3866]: Hangup (SIGHUP) > Nov 30 18:48:01 localhost pppd[3866]: Modem hangup > Nov 30 18:48:01 localhost pppd[3866]: Connection terminated. > Nov 30 18:48:02 localhost pppd[3866]: Exit. > Can you said me what is the meaning of LCP terminated by peer > (^Skj^X^@<M-Mt^@^@^CM-.) ? Thanks for your help. I can't say what the (...) means. Usually control characters in a log mean the original characters had hex representations beyond 7f and the high bit was stripped in the process of generating ascii text. But the () enclosing something with a "." at the end does look a lot like a comment of some sort. Regards- -- Clifford Kite /* Better is the enemy of good enough. */
