I installed Ubuntu Ultimate 2.5 yesterday. Its awesome! Though i faced some problems like No drivers for my graphic card and no internet connection, I could sort out the first problem but not the second one
.
The problem:
I changed my internet scheme last month. However I didn't change my Username. (My previous account is deactivated.) So now the username for both the accounts is the same.
In win xp there is an option called "Service provider:" where i enter the service provider name and thus i'm able to logon to other account. However i can't do so in linux.
Firstly, I could not establish a connection using the gui network applet. So decided to go the terminal way. I could establish a connection from terminal using "pppoeconf" but it logged on the old account which is deactivated.
The passwords for both the accounts is different. ubuntu by default got me connected to the previous account when i entered the password of that account however when i enter the password for the other account and see the status using "plog" it shows an error "CHAP authentication failed."
My isp is "Fivenet". The previous one was "Pacenet". Both are provided by the local cable walla.
Is there any way in which i can logon to the other account?
I was just searching and this is what i found:-

My problem is exactly the same. HELP NEEDED!
