################################################## # # Example of ppp.secret file # # This file is used to authenticate incoming connections. # You must ``enable'' either PAP or CHAP in your ppp.conf file. # The peer may then use any of the Authname/Authkey pairs listed. # Additionally, if ``passwdauth'' is enabled and an entry isn't # found in this file, the passwd(5) database is used. # # If the password is specified as "*", look it up in passwd(5). # This doesn't work for CHAP connections as ppp must have access # to the unencrypted password for CHAP. # # If an IP address or address range is given as the third field, it # will be assigned to the peer. A ``*'' or an empty field may be # used as a placeholder if you do not wish to override the IP # address, but wish to specify further fields. # # If a label is given as the forth field, it is used when reading # the ppp.linkup and ppp.linkdown files. A ``*'' or an empty field # can be used as a placeholder if you do not wish to override the # label, but wish to specify further fields. # # If a phone number or list of phone numbers is given as the fifth # field, these numbers will be used to call back the client if # ``auth'' or ``cbcp'' callback is enabled (see ``set callback''). # A ``*'' specifies that the client must specify the number. # # ################################################## # Authname Authkey Peer's IP address Label Callback oscar OurSecretKey 192.2.18.34 BigBird X4dWg9327 192.2.18.33/32 fred * * fred subnet * 192.2.18.35-192.2.18.70 subnet admin * * * * homeworker * * * 1234567
