Re: PPP + PAP with Debian
Luis,
I've used the +ua option since I worked out PPP for the first time in
Slackware; I've never had any trouble with it in Debian, under
ppp-2.2.0f-19, 23, and 24 (the very, very latest). I'm sorry to say I
don't know what your trouble could be, but I wanted to let you know it was
possible.

This

as for that in Debian-1.2.5 (19, I think but could be mistaken).
