[pptp-server] PPTP and SMB

I am having an odd problem using PoPToP.  I have a private network with
an NT4SP5 Primary Domain controller.  I have a few Debian 2.1 Linux
boxes providing file and print sharing to a bunch of Win98, NT4, and
Win2K boxes.  Samba is configured on the Linux boxes to slave
authentication to the Domain controller using the security = domain
option.  Everybody inside the private network is using MS-encrypted
passwords.  I then setup an Slackware Linux 7.1 machine with PoPToP and
MS-CHAPV2 authentication on our T1 to the Internet and then setup a
Win2K and Win98 box outside the firewall to test it.  I can connect just
fine and get get around the internal network.  I can even browse and
access shares served by our Windows based machines, but when I try and
access SMB shares on a Unix machine the password authentication fails. 
I have tried this with and without encrypted passwords.

Any help, or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Dan
