[pptp-server] linux-client

[Kenneth E. Lussier]

I'm assuming that you are connecting to a poptop server. Do you log
pptpd activity on the server side? If so that might be helpful. If not,
enable it in /etc/syslogd.conf. As for having to reboot after each try,
no you don't. Just delete /var/run/pptp/xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (ip address of
the server).
