[pptp-server] Error with select(), quitting.

[Antti A Luostarinen]

Hi!

I've requested the port 1723 open from the linux-box I run pptpd on, my
initial setup is as what the main FAQ on the www-site says..


The following processes spawn while I connect from my Win98SE box:

root      7253  0.0  0.3   780   436  ?  S    01:04   0:00 /usr/local/sbin/pptpd 
root      7257  0.1  0.3   816   448  ?  S    01:05   0:00 pptpd [212.90.78.176]                                                   
root      7258  0.2  0.4  1132   612  ?  S    01:05   0:00 /usr/sbin/pppd local 115200 192.168.0.235:192.168.1.235 


What the logs say:
