I had what seems to be a similar problem with my ISP.  My firewall
(Smoothwall) has a cute option for this already but anyway, you probably
need to send a carriage return '^M'.  Good luck.  Oh, also, the Linux name
for authentication is probably PAP.

Subject: MCC PPP



Has anyone established a PPP connection to Mesa Community College from
a Linux box?  I tried at the beginning of this year, but couldn't do
it, because I couldn't figure out their authentication protocol. (I
think that was the reason -- sorry my memory is a little fuzzy.)  I
was following the PPP-HOWTO guide.

Anyways, I plan to try it again this weekend.  If anyone has
established a connection, I would appreciate it if you can suggest
what to do.  I have a connection via WinDoze 98, but I can't get it to
work under Linux.  And they (MCC) aren't of any help.

Thanks,
Sriram
