[pptp-server] Re: Hi, I'm in trouble with the same config as you

[Adrian]

Hello,
  I have gotten 128bit encryption between two linux boxen using pptp 1.0.2
and pptpd 1.0.0.  one problem people might have is that pppd likes deflate
compression more than bsdcomp, so unless you say nodeflate in your options
file, deflate will be used and mppe needs bsdcomp.  here's my options file
for server and client.

server:
debug
name server_name
auth
proxyarp
nodeflate
bsdcomp 15,15
-pap
+chap
+chapms
+chapms-v2
mppe-40
mppe-128
mppe-stateless

client:
name server_name
user client_name
defaultroute
noauth


regards,
adrian
