Hi,
I get the following error when I try to start PopTop: createHostSocket:
Address already in use
Here is my etc/pptpd.conf file:
# TAG: speed
#
# Specifies the speed for the PPP daemon to talk at.
# Some PPP daemons will ignore this value.
#
speed 115200
# TAG: option
#
# Specifies the location of the PPP options file.
# By default PPP looks in '/etc/ppp/options'
#
#option /this/is/the/options/file
# TAG: debug
#
# Turns on (more) debugging to syslog.
#
#debug
# TAG: localip
# TAG: remoteip
#
# Specifies the local and remote IP address ranges.
#
# You can specify single IP addresses seperated by commas or you can
# specify ranges, or both. For example:
#
# 192.168.0.234,192.168.0.245-249,192.168.0.254
#
# IMPORTANT RESTRICTIONS:
#
# 1. No spaces are permitted between commas or within addresses.
#
# 2. If you give more IP addresses than MAX_CONNECTIONS, it will
# start at the beginning of the list and go until it gets
# MAX_CONNECTIONS IPs. Others will be ignored.
#
# 3. No shortcuts in ranges! ie. 234-8 does not mean 234 to 238,
# you must type 234-238 if you mean this.
#
# 4. If you give a single localIP, that's ok - all local IPs will
# be set to the given one. You MUST still give at least one remote
# IP for each simultaneous client.
#
localip 192.168.40.11
remoteip 192.168.40.21-24
# TAG: ipxnets
#
# This gives the range of IPX networks to allocate to clients. By
# default IPX network number allocation is not handled internally.
# By putting a low and high network number here a pool of IPX networks
# can be defined. If this is done then there must be one IPX network
# per client.
#
# The format is a pair of hex numbers without any 0x prefix separated
# by a hyphen.
#
#ipxnets 00001000-00001FFF
# TAG: listen
#
# Defines the IP address of the local interface on which pptpd
# should listen for connections. The default is to listen on all
# local interfaces (even ones brought up by pptp connections, thus
# permitting pptp tunnels inside the pptp tunnels).
#
listen 192.168.40.11
# TAG: pidfile
#
# This defines the file name in which pptpd should store its process
# ID (or pid). The default is /var/run/pptpd.pid.
#
#pidfile /var/run/pptpd.pid
My Ip address for the desired interface is 192.168.40.11.
Ideas?
Thanks,
Greg Mader
