pppd: Peer is not authorized to use remote address
« on: November 14, 2000, 09:34:43 PM »
I am getting the above message when trying to connect to my ISP.
I know the account is active and works because I can attach with a Windows PC.

Any suggestions??

Here is part of the log file:

Have you modified your system in any way? That sounds like the "noauth" parameter is missing from your PPP configuration.
