My alternate (free) provider obviously do not support dual side
authentication with ppp.

When I connect as root, with option noauth, then it is OK.

noauth is priviliged, therefore I used this option stored in a file
under /etc/ppp/peers/filename

In kppp, as option I have now:  call filename

But this still do not work when not connected as root. What is wrong?
PS: I do not checked this setting with file as root.

Thanks
Bibico
