Description iain 2001-11-15 00:40:41 UTC
(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           kppp
Version:           KDE 2.2.1 
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    Debian Packages
Compiler:          gcc 2.95
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

Kppp seems to have a problem with storing passwords. This is not the noauth problem. I.e. I have put noauth in /etc/ppp/options.

From the ppp logs it looks like kppp is sending the wrong password. It seems that if you type in the wrong password once with store password selected it is not possible to change the password again.

So you see the password in cleartext and it's wrong ? Or do you just get a
PPP error in case I'd like to see the relevant excerpt from the log.

Can anyone reproduce this bug in a recent version of KDE, such as 3.5.8?

Closing due to no response. Please reopen this bug if it can still be reproduced with a recent version of KDE, such as 3.5.8 or 4.0.0
