Re: ppp problem

Looks like you are missing the clock rate command on the DCE side for
starters. Also try changing the username command on R4 to "username R5
password 0 CISCO".

The logic you are using to troubleshoot this isn't correct. If you can't
get the interface even to come up why add on PPP much less authentication?
 Also if the line protocol is down you won't be able to ping across the
link. Always try to break these problems down into their simplest form
and troubleshoot from there:

1) Is the line protocol UP/UP on both sides? If not check that both ends
are in the no shutdown state, the clock rate is applied to the DCE side,
neither one of the sides are being used as backup, the line protocol
matches, etc.

2) Now apply the IP addresses and ping.

3) Add on PPP authentication, etc, etc
