   Nope.  It IS PAP/CHAP, same as before.

    That was one of the two differences I had to make.  Just the
username "ausreg" no longer is accepted like it used to be.
(The other difference is the dial-in telephone number.)

    Besides, I can get logged in just fine with Arachne for DOS, and
with Peanut Linux (Red Hat based) which does not use eznet.

   Should I look at PPPD ?     If so, what should I do ?   I haven't
even got the PPPD package downloaded from SW7.1 (or even from SW4.0).

    It is already there.

    I am starting to lose my sense of humour over this.  :(
