[pptp-server] FreeBSD and pptpd?

[william herbert]

Anyone have any luck running this on freeBSD 3.1 stable?
When I initially compiled 0.9.8 I got some errors in pptpctrl.c:28:
/usr/include/libutil.h:55: parse error before `pid_t'
/usr/include/libutil.h:56: parse error before `uid_t'

 so I commented those lines out to get it to Make.
Heres what my logs say, it looks like it almost wants to work... :

maine pptpd[3541]: CTRL: Client 38.26.65.218 control connection started

my win98 VPN addapter is configured per web page instructions, just kinda
weary about
/etc/ppp/options file not being exactly like Linux's , as well as the bad
compile, im not a programmer but the lines that where commented out:

int     uu_lock_txfr __P((const char *_ttyname, pid_t _pid));
int     _secure_path __P((const char *_path, uid_t _uid, gid_t _gid));

look hairy for authentications sake...
thanks for any and all advice.
