OK guys I have a question which I cant solve on my own.
It sounds simple so dont laugth.

How do I put a password on a router without it getting encrypted.

Now I know how to do it with the "username name password password" on the globa
l command (you put no password service encrytion at the global command line).
My real puzzle is how do you do it when using say ppp pap sent-username name pa
ssword.
This always get encrypted and so it would appear to the router that the passwor
ds do not match it sees one as encrypted and one not so rejects (I think thats
why its rejecting anyway) If I remove the no password service ecryption then it
 works as both passwords are encryped.

OK then so how can I leave the password under the BRI for ppp pap authenticatio
n as not encrypted?? or do I have to encrypt both.

Any answers
Shaun
