I am using RedHat 5.2 and KDE with Kppp with IBM.net. To use Kppp I first put
the nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf. Then I put my login in and passwd in
/etc/ppp/pap-secrets ( I used Internet.usinet.mylogin * mypassword, that is
Internet with a Captila "I". There is a space and an asterik "*" between the
login and password. I set up Kppp to use PAP... very important that your
mark it for PAP.
I seems to work well. I have been able to connect to ibm.net using slip and
ppp with the scripts that are on the www.ibm.net site. Go to the help section,
select slip/ppp scripts, then select Linux. I followed them to the letter and
they both (slip and ppp) worked the first time.
