I'm able to get the "Dialup password" prompt, but > none of the passwords seem to work. There is a bug in the documentation at SR10.1 and SR10.2. It is corrected at SR10.3. The format of the /etc/d_passwd file *SHOULD* be: /bin/sh:13-character-encrypted-password: (Note the trailing colon. This was missing in 10.1 and 10.2 documentation.) The password must be encrypted with crypt(3). Thus, don't use an encrypted password from /etc/passwd if the password for that account was last changed at SR9.x. I've gotten this working here, so if you have any problems let me know. Hope this helps. -- Douglas Keenan Rand Honeywell -- Air Transport Systems Division Phone: +1 602 436 2814 US Snail: P.O.
