I use the AutoPPP feature and have the binary 1.0.0-1 version.
It works fine. You have to get the client which is dialing in to
start sending PPP rather then looking for "login:". This works well
with Win95 Dial-Up Networking. I can use the same login/password for
a telnet login and PPP login. Your problem is most likely with the
client.
