Re: Connect to WinNT callback service with Linux machine.



The NT server problem can be solved by the ops of the NT server. There is
an option that tells it to use/not use the 'special' MS options. Wthout
that, it reverts to normal passwd or even pap/chap. Every NT server having
this option enabled, should TELL users that it will accept ONLY MS
products. Wonder how much that will help their service being popular...
