[ale] Hey mister, can ya spare a clue? (PPP help needed...)

Wed Jun 23 21:32:08 EDT 1999

Hello all,

I am trying to setup a dialin pppd server using
RedHat 6.0 with the pppd 2.3.7 program.

I have some users who can dial in with no problem,
but others, notably USRobotic Sportster 33.6 owners
have trouble.

Can anyone help me figure out what may or many not
be going on here?  I have had a dial in server in the
past which worked with these users, so I know that
it is possible, and their client configurations have
not changed.

Below is the
/etc/ppp/options file,
/var/log/messages output,
and the win98 clients ppplog output.

Any clues humbly and graciously accepted with appreciation!
