Hi Joel!

JH>Perhaps the "chmod 600" change something, because pppd said that
JH>my "paplogin" is open to world.
AFAIK pppd refuses to use PAP if the secrets file is not mode 600

JH>now i need a trik for changing "chmod 600"
JH>without "minix/vfat/newfatfs".
Use ext2 ;-)
The fat filesystems (all versions) do not provide access rights (these
modes).
Your only chance will be to patch the pppd not to pay attention to the mode.
I strongly recommend to use a Minix or ext2 partition. It will save you a lot
of trouble and work and is AFAIK faster

Bye
