[pptp-server] Beginner Help

Yea, I was just there.  Make sure your subnets are very different between
your real ip for win98 and the vpn address..........or............do a lot
of elaborate changes to your win98 routing table.  Its probably working, but
win98 decides not to use the tunnel because he don't think he needs too.

|I have successfully compiled and installed the poptop server software (I
|think).
|
|My first test is a win98 box on the internal net connecting to the pptp
|server (no fiirewall in-between).
|
|The box connects and I see the ppp connection come up on the linux box
|vi ifconfig.  If I do a ipconfig on the windows box I see the new
|address.
|
|I set up the ip-up.local script to add to the arp table and if I do an
|arp at the command line I see the ip is in there.
|
|Everything seems good to go except that I cannot ping (or anything else)
|between the win98 client and the pptp server.
|
|When I run tcpdump and ping from the pptp server I see GRE stuff fly
|by.  If I ping from the win98 box I see nothing on the linux side with
|tcpdump.
|
|Is there  a configuration problem on the win box or the linux box?
|
|Any suggestions?  What more information does someone need to give me a
|hand?
|
|Please Help,
|
