new dial in server - pppd hangs on connect
I'm setting up a server for modem dial using debian woody + security.
This is meant to replace a debian 2.2 server which works fine, except
that Windows XP wont connect to it.
My new server is having problems, however. I am hoping someone can get
me going in the right direction.
I have tried mgetty/pppd & portslave/pppd/radiusd-cistron and I'm having
similar problems with pppd in both situations.
For the mgetty situation, when the client connects, mgetty spawns pppd,
which hangs until 'kill'ed. The client PC gives up in a reasonable
amount of time.
Even though I have quite a bit of pppd logging options enabled, pppd is
only logging that it started, and that it was terminated (when I kill
it).
'ps ux' shows this before I kill the process.
root 4058 0.0 2.9 2000 892 ttyS0 S 10:37 0:00 pppd auth -chap +pap login debug kdebug 1
NOTE: For testing, I'm using a Windows 98 client. The configuration is the
same for both the debian 2.2 server (working) and the debian woody server
(not working), so this should be a valid configuration.
Here are the relevant files & logs of my mgetty/pppd configuration:
ppp_2.4.1.uus-4_i386.deb
mgetty_1.1.27-4.1_i386.deb
