Grandson of PPPoE ;)

Hi again all,

I was wondering if i could continue to get help diagnosing what wrong with
my pppoe link.

SO far i know, that mouse-pppoe almost works, but isgetting bounced with
chap authenitcation (As my isp doesn;t do pap).

Now i tried to setup a chap-secrets file in /etc/ppp/chap-secrets

I fixed the syslog problem, i was logging ppp, and should have been
logging pppd :)

First i was getting this error in the logs.

Now that i was told was CHAP authentication crapping out. Correct ?

SO becasue it was chap, i set chap-require as an optionn, and i recompiled
mouse-pppoe. Then when i tried to run it i got.

Oct  9 01:13:42 poley pppd[27479]: peer authentication required but no
suitable 
secret(s) found 
Oct  9 01:13:42 poley pppd[27479]: for authenticating any peer to us
(poley)

My /etc/ppp/chap-secrets looks like

# Secrets for authentication using PAP
# client        server  secret                  IP addresses
"aaustr10_(_at_)_bpa" pppoe "password" 
"austr10_(_at_)_bigpond"  pppoe "password" 

I'm aware this is a pap secrets file, i simply copied over the pap one,
becasue it had the same headers as the empty chap-secrets. Did i do
something wrong here ?

Any ideas people's ?
