Has anyone in this group successfully connected (using PopTop) and
transfered data using NT 4.0 (SP5 128bit)? 

The reason I asked is I have not been successful at transferring data when
establishing a pptp connection. My linux box (ppp) seems to authenciate, but
thats about it. Pings, etc... do not work. The route tables etc... look to
be fine.

Also, I am trying to connect to my linux box over the internet (through) my
linux based firewall that is configured with ipchains. I have added what I
thought were the correct entries i.e. port 47, etc.... If anyone has been
successful in using poptop through a linux based firewall, could you send me
your ipchains commands so that I can verify that I have correctly setup my
system at my end. I really think this is the source of my problems but have
been unsuccessful at getting any data to pass acroos the VPN.

I noticed the following error in my log files. Does anyone have an idea if
this could be the problem? I have noticed some other posts (log files) that
do not have this entry.
