mgetty and AutoPPP
Gday,
Im having a hard time getting mgetty and AutoPPP connections to work
with /etc/ppp/{pap,chap}-secrets.
o My error message im receiving from the dialin server is below
rcvd [PAP AuthNak id=0x1 "User not known to the underlying
authentication module"]
Remote message: User not known to the underlying authentication module
PAP authentication failed
sent [LCP TermReq id=0x2 "Failed to authenticate ourselves to peer"]
rcvd [LCP TermReq id=0x2 "Authentication failed"]
o /etc/mgetty/login.config looks like
/AutoPPP/ - - /usr/sbin/pppd auth login +pap debug kdebug 7
Ive also tried with no luck
/AutoPPP/ - a_ppp /usr/sbin/pppd auth login +pap debug kdebug 7
o /etc/ppp/options.dialin which is called by /etc/ppp/options.ttyS0
(incoming modem) looks like
debug
kdebug 7
proxyarp
modem
crtscts
mru 552
mtu 552
show-password
o /etc/pam.d/ppp looks like
auth required pam_nologin.so
@include common-auth
@include common-account
@include common-session
o Important package versions are below
ii mgetty 1.1.33-2
ii ppp 2.4.3-20050321+2
ii libpam-modules 0.76-22
Users within /etc/passwd are able to login via a ppp session, but
/etc/ppp/{pap,chap}-secrets users are not.
This dialin server used to allow incoming ppp connections when it ran
woody, and a recent upgrade to sarge has broken this.
Any suggestions or possible fixes are greatly appreciated.
