How can I use encrypted passwords to work while loging in demon.nl?
I use pap-secrets and it works with a unencrypted password. Now I put
papcrypt in /etc/ppp/options and use crypt/3 with some random seed to
encrypt the password and put that so encrypted password on the place of
password in /etc/ppp/pap-secrets but this doesn't work. Should I use
some special seed?  Encrypt in a other way? Does demon not suppot it?
What should I do instead?
