that are made in each of the FSMs (LCP, CCP & IPCP) and the
number of REQs/Challenges for PAP/CHAP by accepting more arguments
in the ``set {c,ip,l}cpretry'' and ``set {ch,p}apretry'' commands.
Change the non-convergence thresholds to 3 times the number of configured
REQ tries (rather than the previous fixed ``10''). We now notice
repeated NAKs and REJs rather than just REQs.
Don't suggest that CHAP 0x05 isn't supported when it's not configured.
Fix some bugs that expose themselves with smaller numbers of retries:
o Handle instantaneous disconnects (set device /dev/null) correctly
by stopping all fsm timers in fsm2initial.
o Don't forget to uu_unlock() devices that are files but are not
ttys (set device /dev/zero).
Fix a *HORRENDOUS* bug in RFC1661 (already fixed for an Open event in state
``Closed''):
According to the state transition table, a RCR+ or RCR- received in
the ``Stopped'' state are supposed to InitRestartCounter, SendConfigReq
and SendConfig{Ack,Nak}. However, in ``Stopped'', we haven't yet
done a TLS (or the last thing we did is a TLF). We must therefore
do the TLS at this point !
This was never noticed before because LCP and CCP used not use
LayerStart() for anything interesting, and IPCP tends to go into
Stopped then get a Down because of an LCP RTR rather than getting a
RCR again.
a bum name to return as 0.0.0.0... we don't want ``delete xxx''
to delete the default route when xxx doesn't resolve.
Support IP number specifications as the host when specifying
a tcp-style device (rather than *just* hostnames).
correctly by invoking the timer to get the value before
displaying the message.
Don't assume that a value of 0 is ``random'' in
``show datalink''.
Make the random value between 1 and DIAL_TIMEOUT rather
than between 0 and DIAL_TIMEOUT-1
Some CHAP implementations send no welcome message with their
SUCCESS/FAILURE packets. This was being mis-identified as
a truncated packet by the new authentication code :-(
is complete before checking carrier. If it's there,
the device supports carrier. If it's not it doesn't.
Add the ``set cd'' command for deciding how soon to check
for carrier, and for deciding if carrier is REQUIRED.
The default has changed: Pre 2.0 versions of ppp waited
for 1 second. Version 2 didn't wait, but this causes
problems with some (few?) modems that don't assert carrier
immediately on reporting CONNECT. The one second delay
is back now and can be removed with ``set cd 0''.
Bump the ppp version number in case this needs to be changed
again....
each time rather than making up a new one.
Increase the authname/authkey max sizes to 100 characters.
Allow ``authkey'' specifications beginning with ``!''.
When a challenge is received, the text following the
``!'' is executed as a program (expanding stuff in the same
way that ``sh'' and ``!bg'' do). The program is passed the
peer name, peer challenge and local ``authname'' on standard
input and is expected to output the name/key combination that
should be used to build the CHAP response.
This provides support for Secure ID cards (guess what I was
given at work recently!) using CHAP.
Examples will follow.
input routines and take advantage of the new init/continue
interface in libradius. This allows a timely response on
other links in an MP setup while RADIUS requests are in
progress as well as the ability to handle other data from
the peer in parallel. It should also make the future addition
of PAM support trivial.
While I'm in there, validate pap & chap header IDs if
``idcheck'' is enabled (the default) for other FSM packet
types.
NOTE: This involved integrating the generation of chap
challenges and the validation of chap responses
(and commenting what's going on in those routines).
I currently have no way of testing ppps ability
to respond to M$Chap CHALLENGEs correctly, so if
someone could do the honours, it'd be much
appreciated (it *looks* ok!).

configured. This isn't strictly necessary according to the
rfc, but it's suggested there....
o Don't forget to include our authname when sending a
CHAP challenge when RADIUS is configured.
o Don't supply the ``16'' representing the chap answer
length to radius_Authenticate() - libradius does this
for us.
o When we successfully authenticate via radius_Authenticate(),
continue with datalink_AuthOk() as expected.

details. Compiling with -DNORADIUS (the default for `release')
removes support.
TODO: The functionality in libradius::rad_send_request() needs
to be supplied as a set of routines so that ppp doesn't
have to wait indefinitely for the radius server(s). Instead,
we need to get a descriptor back, select() on the descriptor,
and ask libradius to service it when necessary.
For now, ppp blocks SIGALRM while in rad_send_request(), so
it misses PAP/CHAP retries & timeouts if they occur.
Only PAP is functional. When CHAP is attempted, libradius
complains that no User-Password has been specified... rfc2138
says that it *mustn't* be used for CHAP :-(

the answer.
If we later get a descriptor exception from select(), we know
that it's a tty (isatty() returns 0 after the exception on a
tty) and remember to call modem_LogicalClose().
The upshot of it all is that descriptor exceptions dont leave
the tty locked any more.
to see if there's anything to do, schedule the next alarm
based on the next required timeout.
This decreases the load when there are lots of relatively
idle ppp processes.
While I'm in there, handle the possibility that a timeout
makes the timer element go out of scope by grabbing the
enext pointer before executing the timer function.
Remove any dial timer that might be hanging around at
datalink_Destroy() time. This timer may be left running
after the link is closed (making sure it's not automatically
opened again too soon).
exits, it causes a select() exception.
Handle these select() exceptions on link descriptors in pretty
much the same way as loss of carrier rather than dropping out
in confusion.
