ok, it's better now with this script,
The connection in now up, but without authentification!
If find to resovle this, but I fail.

My configuration:

NT server                                            Linux client
x.y.4.11     -----------------------------    x.y.4.12
name : eillel
domain:CHANTEURS
USER accepted:VPN

I  added "auth" in the /etc/ppp/options" file,

and the file /etc/ppp/chap-secret" is similar to:

    Client                            Server
Secret        IP Address
    CHANTEURS\\VPN    eiffel                              vpn
    eiffel                              CHANTEURS\\VPN    vpn


Could someone help me ?
