Did I read this right? You have "MSN Explorer with web based email"? This tells me that you are not running Linux...
what else am i missing?
This question is so vague you might as well be asking what processor everyone has and saying 'I have 800'...

Sorry if that came out rude at all, I've had a very long day...
It looks to me that you have a Linux server (what distro?) and are trying to connect with another PC (windows?). The log looks like the authentification failed, we need more details, sorry.

my fault.
i have dellnet.msn as my isp. msn explorer is what i got with my dell pc, my email is web based like hotmail.
i installed mandrake 8.1 and are trying to set up an internet connection using kppp???, tha above are the errors i got after trying to connect.
i guess i was wondering if the kind of setup i had would make it difficult to set up the connection in linux
thanx again
