pppd-pap problem
Hi Everybody,
i need to make the ppp-authentication phase (pap) up in my linux -2.4 and the peer is Mandrake-linux-2.6. I am using pppd command for the same.
I am using the below command.
$pppd /dev/ppps locip:remip user (user_name) remotename(remote_name) papcrypt
In /etc/ppp/pap-secrets file, i am giving the secret passwd with which i authenticate the peer. In /etc/ppp/options i am giving auth option.
The same thing i am doing in the peer machine and when i started the pppd cmd in both machines,i get the error saying
pppd: The remote system (remote_name) is required to authenticate itself
pppd: but I couldn't find any suitable secret (password) for it to use to do so
How to sort out this?? Can anybody help me in this regard.
Thanks ,
Sriram

pppd-radius
PPPD-RADIUS(8) System Manager's Manual PPPD-RADIUS(8)
NAME
radius.so - RADIUS authentication plugin for pppd(8)
SYNOPSIS
pppd [ options ] plugin radius.so
DESCRIPTION
The RADIUS plugin for pppd permits pppd to perform PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAP and MS-CHAPv2 authentication against a RADIUS server instead of the
usual /etc/ppp/pap-secrets and /etc/ppp/chap-secrets files.
The RADIUS plugin is built on a library called radiusclient which has its own configuration files (usually in /etc/radiusclient), consult
those files for more information on configuring the RADIUS plugin
OPTIONS
The RADIUS plugin introduces one additional pppd option:
radius-config-file filename
The file filename is taken as the radiusclient configuration file. If this option is not used, then the plugin uses
/etc/radiusclient/radiusclient.conf as the configuration file.
avpair attribute=value
Adds an Attribute-Value pair to be passed on to the RADIUS server on each request.
map-to-ifname
Sets Radius NAS-Port attribute to number equal to interface name (Default)
map-to-ttyname
Sets Radius NAS-Port attribute value via libradiusclient library
USAGE
To use the plugin, simply supply the plugin radius.so option to pppd, and edit /etc/radiusclient/radiusclient.conf appropriately. If you
use the RADIUS plugin, the normal pppd authentication schemes (login, checking the /etc/ppp/*-secrets files) are skipped. The RADIUS
server should assign an IP address to the peer using the RADIUS Framed-IP-Address attribute.
