Win98se connects fine to ISP #1.
Win98se connects fine to ISP #2.
Win98se connects fine to ISP #3.

Linux via PPPD connects fine to ISP #1.
Linux via PPPD connects fine to ISP #2.
Linux via PPPD connects fine to ISP #3.

Linux via KPPP connects fine to ISP #1.
Linux via KPPP connects fine to ISP #2.
Linux via KPPP *cannot* connect to ISP #3.

ISP #1, #2, and #3 all use PAP authentication.

ISP #1 and #2 are linux based ISP's.
ISP #3 is NT based.


Is this odd or what??

What stumps me especially is that I can connect to ISP #3 via invoking PPPD directly.

I had been battling this thing for almot two weeks until I finally tried out some other ISP's and discovered that there's something up with my original ISP... ISP #3.

The only thing I can suggest is try to invoke pap protocol directly or switch it to chap.
