Well alot of dial up tools do this put your password in * so you can let other people use your computer and dial up and they wont know what your password is.. But in kppp all you have to do to fix out whats UNDER the * is just CUT and PASTE.. Thats right.. Just COPY the *'s and paste then to a term and you can see what there password is... I am not sure if this is a problem or what.. But there is no reason to have the *'s if they are so easy to get past... btw somone might want to report this to the makers of kppp.. --flipz
