I'ld love to let factotum do the prompting.  If you use chap or mschap, it already
does.  I'll stick your prompting changes into a dial/whatever routine and the
dial stuff can do it too.  We can't use them at workm, because we use RSA Securid tokens
for passwords

As for the server= field, we can easily pass that in as a parameter that will
get passed to factotum.  I'm not so sure about dialstrings.  They really aren't
part of the security info and, at least in the case of the 3 ISP's I deal with,
are relative to where I'm dialing from.  I'ld rather not stick that all into
my secstore.

I agree about telco, that's why I wrote it.  However, I found that people
here just don't use it, probably for the reason you mentioned.

Thanks, does this sound reasonable to you?
