Hi,

I use ppp-2.3.5 with a linux box, and two external modems for dialin.
I use IP dynamic attribution using the options.tty* :

---
options.ttyS0
192.168.1.1:192.168.1.100

option.ttyS1
192.168.1.1:192.168.1.101

And in pap-secret
ppp * "test" *
---

This means that two persons can connect at the same time using the
same login name.

But I would like something else : I would like a user to have all
the time the same IP address but I want to keep the dynamic attribution
for user ppp.

So if I put in my pap-secret :
joe * "test" 192.168.30.10

I receive a PAP authentication failure when I try to log in !?!

Any idea how can I use both dynamic IP for one user and static for
others ?

This means that pap will only succeed if the user joe, with the password
test comes in from a machine with the IP number 192.168.30.10
It does not assign tht number to the remote machine.
(I am not entirely sure this is correct, but think it is)
