Is this stuff currently implemented in pppd, or are there any plans to do it? I also have a related question regarding Microsoft RAS. Is the authentication and callback stuff in W95/NT fully RFC compliant or did Microsoft throw in some proprietary extensions? -tom -------------- Tom Lislegaard CMR, phone: +47-55-574327, fax:+47-55-574041
