Hi,

I am using FC 2 at the moment. The internet connection via ADSL works properly.

I've got another installation with the brand new Fedora Core 3. When trying to
connect to my provider I get the following messages in /var/log/messages:

Nov 10 20:50:26 bird pppd[5581]: pppd 2.4.2 started by root, uid 0
Nov 10 20:50:26 bird pppd[5581]: Using interface ppp0
Nov 10 20:50:26 bird pppd[5581]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/2
Nov 10 20:50:26 bird pppoe[5582]: PPP session is 4153
Nov 10 20:50:26 bird pppd[5581]: Remote message: Request Denied
Nov 10 20:50:26 bird pppd[5581]: PAP authentication failed
Nov 10 20:50:26 bird pppd[5581]: Connection terminated.
Nov 10 20:50:26 bird pppoe[5582]: Session 4153 terminated -- received PADT from
peer
Nov 10 20:50:26 bird pppoe[5582]: Sent PADT
Nov 10 20:50:27 bird pppd[5581]: Exit.
Nov 10 20:50:27 bird adsl-connect: ADSL connection lost; attempting re-connection.

I am especially wondering about this line with "Request Denied".

How do I have to interpretet this (these) message(s)? The password and username
are correct and password and username are the same as with my FC2 installation
(I have compared the files /etc/ppp/pap-secrets and /etc/ppp/chap-secrets)

Thanks for any advice

greets Boris
