ppp authentication

[korn4266]

I have Dial up with peoplepc. I have Fedora Linux Core 1. I use kppp to connect to the internet.
When I try to connect I get:

The pppd daemon Died unexpectidly.

Exit status: 19

I checked the ppp log and the authentication for PAP/Chap failed. I changed the authentication to Chap, PAP,
and script based and get the same error. I checked the username and pass and they are correct.
Would someone care to help me.

Can you post the /etc/ppp/option & /etc/ppp/chap-secrets. If you have any other option files post those also.

# Secrets for authentication using CHAP
# client server secret IP addresses

The *'s are my password.

Are you sure your user id is not "dprien@peoplepc.com"
If that fails post the /etc/ppp/options file please
