[pptp-server] Using the PPTP client?

Boris:
the error you're getting is due to a file in /var/run/pptp.  I'm guessing you ran the client once, and then got this error on the next attempt(s).  rm the file /var/run/pptp/204.112.44.4 and then restart your client.

I'm not sure which pptp client you're using.  The one I use was recommended on the PoPToP web age ( C.S. Ananian, if I remember correctly).  There's a pointer for the code and the basic config info on moretonbay.com (or at least there was when I set my first client up...).

Hope this is helpful

  How the heck do you use the PPTP client? Examples would be nice. I have an account at mycompany.com login: test pass: testpass. Give me an example how how to use this information. Also do I need to compile anything specific in the kernel to get it working?
   
  I typed root at test: pptp mycompany.com user boris
   
  warn[open_unixsock:pptp_callmgr.c:308]: Call manager 204.112.44.4 is already running.
  fatal[callmgr_main:pptp_callmgr.c:124]: Could not open unix socket for 204.112.44.4
  fatal[launch_callmgr:pptp.c:213] Call manager exited with error 256
   
  Nothing seems to happen?
