However as soon as I got several lines I noticed that PPP assigns the same IP to all clients connecting with "Server assigned IP address" - for instance if configured set ifaddr 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.250/26 in the /etc/ppp/ppp.conf it assigns 192.168.0.250 to everyone.... :() (192.168.0.250/26 is configured as IP in /etc/ppp/ppp.secret for each user). Could anyone, please tell me if this configuration is wrong? Or what could I do to it? (Not everyone guesses to specify an allowed IP .... :)) ) Thank you in advance. Sincerely yours, Alex.
