I think you still might have a problem with your kernel and/or pppd
compilation, but the following might help you achieve your goal. This
connection was made from a W2K system with MSCHAP-v2 and "Require Data
Encryption" enabled. Unfortunatly, I don't have a W98 system available, but
I have been successful with W98 in the past.

Good Luck
