Sorry, I would like to apologize for my off-topic question again!

Yes, this was the mistake. I changed it to * now.
But also at this time I don't know what the setting for server means.

Is it right that I have to set every(!?!) user in the pap-secrets file
to give hime ppp access? Is this the argument why you don't like
PAP-authentification, Gert?
