Re: PAP - Shadow passwords may also make a difference
Hello all:
I have adjusted by pap-secrets file as follows:
#magic fix
* * ""
not
>> # magic fix
>> * * "" *
I have tested with and without shadow passwords and
all works fine. I think the trick is in the /etc/mgetty/login.config.
I had to specify login in the AutoPPP line. OR perhaps its
some other little setting I am over looking. For example.
in my /etc/ppp/
options.ttyS0
options.ttyS1
options.ttyC0 .....
I specify the following:
*** options.ttyS0 file ***
moose:moose-s0 not moose-s0:moose as indicated in the example
*** options.ttyS1 file ***
moose:moose-s1 not moose-s1:moose as indicated in the example
In my /etc/hosts file I give the indicated nodes IP addresses. ie:
142.154.27.2 moose <--- multiport server
142.154.27.10 moose-s0
142.154.27.11 moose-s1
