1. AutoPPP/mgetty under Redhat 5.1
I am having problems with AutoPPP under 2.0.35 kernel in Redhat 5.1.
I have read all the FAQ's and HOWTO's on mgetty, ppp and other associated
areas. mgetty seems to work (according to the logs) and pass on the
following parameters to pppd:
08/05 11:45:05 ##### data dev=ttyE0, pid=516, caller='none', conn='33600',
name='', cmd='/bin/login', user='/AutoPPP/'
pppd then is called, however something goes wrong between the above and
here. I have tried to compile the latest version of pppd, however
installing it as per the instructions causes kernel compiling errors so I
revert back to the standard pppd included with Redhat 5.1.
pppd log:
Aug 5 12:05:20 leviticus PAM_pwdb[597]: bad username [/AutoPPP/]
Aug 5 12:05:20 leviticus login[597]: FAILED LOGIN 1 FROM (null) FOR
/AutoPPP/, User not known to the underlying authentication module
Aug 5 12:05:23 leviticus PAM_pwdb[597]: bad username
Aug 5 12:05:23 leviticus login[597]: FAILED LOGIN 2 FROM (null) FOR
underlying authentication module
Aug 5 12:05:27 leviticus PAM_pwdb[597]: bad username
Aug 5 12:05:27 leviticus login[597]: FAILED LOGIN 3 FROM (null) FOR
authentication module
If anyone could help me with the above problem it would be much appreciated
Many thanks in advance
