[pptp-server] Nothing seems to be working

[Geoff Nordli]

I even went as far as to try the new 1.1.1pre3 build on this machine.

It seems that it just can't negotiate with pppd, or has problems generating
a GRE packet.  One thing to note.  This machine has the VPN MASQ
patches applied to it.

What can I give to the list that can give you some hints as to why
this isn't working.

The errors that I received on the latest build are below.

thanks,

geoff
