[pptp-server] Error 629

[Patrick Reid]

Curious. I looked in my logs, and each connection has a set of log entries
like this:

However, since I have been getting these Error 629 messages, there has been
nothing in the logs. PPTP is running, since if I try to execute it again, I
get the "socket in use" error.

But it apparently doesn't even start the control connection any more.

Help?!?!?

send (or check yourself) ppp logs from either machine. Something is most
likely wrong with authentication, and it is disconnecting you because it
thinks you shouldnt be allowed to log in.
