Comment 3 for bug 82378

I've just installed Ubuntu 6.10 and have hit this problem having used System -> Administration -> Networking to configure the modem. /etc/ppp/peers/ppp0 doesn't contain noauth, unlike a much older version of Ubuntu I used to use, probably 5.04. Consequently, pppd complains during `ifup ppp0' as described above. The vanilla 6.10 install has left me with gnome-system-tools 2.15.5-0ubuntu2.
