[pptp-server] pptpd.log

[Hisashi T Fujinaka]

I joined this list to report exactly the same problem. I'm using
kernel-2.2.16-3, ppp-2.3.11-4, pptpd-1.0.0-1, and the mppe patches. It
also occurred with the previous kernel.

The messages spew out at several per second and can grow my logs to
hundreds of megabytes by the time I see it (like overnight).
