Thanks so far for the feedback. Ok, the system I am dialing into is Suse 7.1 Kernel 2.4.7-4 with mgetty & ppp installed. The system I am using to dial into it is my own Suse 7.1 using wvdial. I have tried the remote systems secrets file with both quotes & no quotes, my own system with pap, chap & terminal login. All make no difference in the error. I have no problem in connecting to my ISP using wvdial, just the Suse box I am setting up. The remote system has wvdial installed & it has no problems in connecting to it's ISP. Below are more errors from the log files.

Hi All
I am trying to configure a suse 7.1 system for remote access via a modem / ppp & am having a few problems.
On connecting to the system I get a screen full of garbage in the ppp log (see below).
Welcome to SuSE Linux 7.bP|Pug#Password: Login incorrect

I have set-up the user in the system as well as the pap-secrets / chap-secrets file. I am sure I am missing something simple in setting this up.
If you just put and asterick in the pap-secrets for the username, it will use the systems, which will allow their login password for dial-up to be the same as at a tty (though it does not log them in per se).
can anyone help with this?
It looks like it is either a bad phone line, or protocol mismatch. What system/OS is calling in?
