Hello everyone,

I would really appreciate it if anyone could give me feedback on how to
connect a Linux box using PPP to a WinNT box which runs RAS(acts as a PPP
server). Has anyone gotten this successfully working? Thanks in advance.

1. get ppp-2.1.2c.tar.gz from sunsite.unc.edu.

2. Set Windows NT to use 'accept any authentication including clear text'
and don't set 'require encrypted authentication'.

3. Configure Linux to use UPAP. Instructions are in the man page. Use the
account name and password for the Windows NT domain as the values for
the UPAP data.

No, I haven't! I've posted a similar question in some of the NT groups
and the responses I get all say that you have to be a RAS client to dial
into NT. I'm sure there is some way to send the correct authentication
sequence to the NT RAS machine, but I sure don't know what it is.

You also need to delete a the SPAP key from the registry in the NT
machine. I don't remember exactly what it is, but it is something like
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\CurrentControlSet\Services\RasMan\PPP\SPAP.

If you have any problems setting this up, feel free to contact me.
I finally got it working after months of trying myself.

I'd love to hear more... I've been bashing my head against the wall for
weeks trying to get it to work. I'll send you some email, too.
