[pptp-server] problem connecting Win2000 client (almost there though..)

[Louis-David Mitterrand]

Hi,

There is no problem with Win98SE clients, but for the life of me I can't
succeed in connecting my Win2000-RC3 laptop to our Linux firwall. After
a successful MSCHAP-v2 authentication the process hangs (and terminates)
with these messages which make no sense to me:

Dec 23 10:33:43 sargon modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module ppp-compress-18

What is the server requesting that the client can't send?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Cheers,
