Topic: no dialing to t-online

[Juergen Schuerer]

ok, now my questions in english.

In the last days, i have tested the Mitel SME server in version 5.5 using an ISDN-card AVM-A1. up to now i was dialing over ISP  MSN. So as to configure the mailing system, i must dial in over ISP t-online.But i get no connection.

Is there a known problem, Is there anybody who has experience ?

thanks

I have no problem to dial-in to t-online using dsl or an external isdn-ta.
setup for user + pwd was done the usual way.
But I have to force my modem to use hdlc-mode.

Hi Jochen,

i can see in the file /var/log/messages that the connection is established (ipp0 = connected) only the authentification is incorrect. After the server has sent the password, the connection will be terminated.In the file /etc/ppp/pap-secrets is the username and the password correct. For username i use then common form like in "DFÜ-Netzwerk" (AK+T-online-Nr.+#+0001).

Any idea ?

for all who are interested. The Username for a t-online account must entered in following form:

       AAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTT\#MMMM

maybe this is only true if the t-online-number is less than 12 digits.

Ciao

Good catch -- I'll open a bug report for that here.

This IS true as you can skip the "#" Character if it is more than 12 digits.
It is also mentioned in the t-online manual.
