AutoPPP account?

• Messages sorted by:[ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ]

Hello,

Recently I've been trying to set up a ppp server to handle dialin users=
 from win95 pc but encountered some trouble. 

My questions are:

1.How can I create an account to work with AutoPPP and how can my win95=
 users configurate their dialup connection(i.e. what user name and password=
 they should use)?

2. Is it possible to let a win95 dialin user have shell access? If=
 possible, how to do it?

I also heard that there is a patch which can enable AutoPPP to work without=
 an account. Would anyone mind telling me how does it work and where to=
 find it?

The following are related sections of my current configuration files:

/etc/inittab:
T3:23:respawn:/sbin/mgetty -x2 -D ttyS1

/etc/mgetty/login.config:
/AutoPPP/ -     a_ppp   /etc/ppp/ppplogin
*       -       -       /bin/login @

/etc/ppp/ppplogin:
#!/bin/sh
mesg n
stty -echo
/usr/sbin/pppd file /etc/ppp/options.server

/etc/ppp/options.server:
ms-dns 192.168.0.1
asyncmap 0
auth
crtscts
lock
modem
netmask 255.255.255.0
-detach
+pap
-chap
proxyarp
login

/etc/ppp/options/ttyS1:
192.168.0.1:192.168.0.2

/etc/ppp/pap-secrets:
*       *       ""      *
root    *       "*"     *

the "guest" entry in my /etc/passwd is:
guest::1003:1003:,,,:/tmp:/etc/ppp/ppplogin

My win95 user uses "guest" as their usrname and have no password, but PPP=
 connection cannot be successfully established.

Here's an excerpt of my ppp.log:
