[pptp-server] Compiling mppe on RedHat 6.2 (kernel 2.2.14)

[Pat Osterday]

Thanks for all the responses.  Tom's little patch did the trick with the
RedHat source.  Sounds like RedHat does quite a bit of their own to the
source they distribute - I don't like that, but I'm a happy camper now,
though!

BTW, I read in the RedHat PoPToP HOWTO that the domainname can be in caps or
lower case - as in domainname\\username.  This is not the case, at least
using mschap.  It _has_ to be in caps or my NT 4.0 SP5 workstation would not
connect.  Thinking about applying the patch to get rid of domainname
altogether...
