Re: incoming PAP authentication failures
I double checked it and it is mode 600 root.root.
Will pppd give a authentication failure if the networking settings aren't
configured correctly? I"m trying to do this using ipmasq.. the net-3
howto isn't very detailed, but it does give an example of what I'm trying
to do -- lacking all the pppd and hosts/DNS files... :(
