      Hello All,

      My backwards ISP has informed me that to use static IP's I need to auth with PAP - despite the fact most of the modern world has moved onto more secure CHAP authentication.

      sigh

      I had a go at forcing PAP without much luck - edited /etc/inc/interfaces.inc :
      set link disable pap chap
      set link accept pap

      Which changes how mpd.conf is generated, but doesn't work - still tried to auth with CHAP (despite mpd.conf only accepting pap for outgoing auth).

      Any ideas? Where am I going wrong?
