Hi geoff

yes as modules:

see lsmod:
sw:/var/spool/news/interesting.groups # lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by
ppp_mppe               13328   0  (unused)
ppp_deflate            40548   0  (unused)
bsd_comp                3632   0  (unused)
ppp                    20780   0  [ppp_mppe ppp_deflate bsd_comp]
slhc                    4352   0  [ppp]
serial                 41940   0  (autoclean)

MPPE is in

yes all compiles fine

I am also somehow surprised i am struggling with that, form reading the mail
archives it does not look to complicated.

Thanks so far Toni

  These are just guesses.  I really don't know what the error is.

  Did you compiled PPP as a module in the kernel?

  Did you add the MPPE patch?

  Did everything compile alright?

  Did you try to manually load the modules:

  insmod slhc
  insmod ppp
  insmod ppp_deflate
  insmod bsd_comp
  insmod ppp_mppe

      I struggled with this one for quite some time.

      See if you can run pppd from the command line.  It might give you some
      information about why it isn't running.  The last time I had a typo in
the options file.

        Hi all,

        when trying to start a pptp connection from my linux bos to a remote
NTserver i always get the below:

        (unknown)[544]: log[pptp_dispatch_ctrl_packet:pptp_ctrl.c:531]:
Client connectio
        n established.
        (unknown)[544]: log[pptp_dispatch_ctrl_packet:pptp_ctrl.c:626]:
Error opening ca
        ll. [callid 0]
        Terminated
        jsw:/home/tno/pptp/pptp-linux-1.0.2 # (unknown)[544]:
log[pptp_conn_close:pptp_c
        trl.c:275]: Closing PPTP connection


        I assume this cause the pppd cannot be started for any reason.
        Maybe someone can give me some hints, i did not find any on the
webpages

        Thanks in advance

        Toni
