[pptp-server] IT WORKS :))

[Jean-Paul Chavant]

Hello,

finally i install successfully pptp with encryption.
i think there is an error in the HOW-TO ...
it s not necessary to delete rc4_skey.c reference and to copy
opensssl/crytpo/rc4/rc4_files. the openssl patch creates or copies the
necessary files !

to sum up :

using linux 2.2.14-mdk

- download pptp.rpm (on moretonbay ressource) and install it (rpm -ivh)
- donwload ppp-2.3.11 from ftp://cs.anu.edu.au/pub/software/ppp/ for
example) and untar
- download patch ppp-2.3.11-openssl-0.9.5-mppe.patch from
ftp.binarix.com/pub/ppp-mppe/
- go into ppp src directory
- apply the patch (patch -p1 < ppp-2.3.11-openssl-0.9.5-mppe.patch)
- ./configure
- make
- make kernel
- make install
- go into linux src directory
- make modules SUBDIRS=drivers/net
- make module_install
- depmod -a
- modprobe ppp
- modprobe ppp_mppe
- configure /etc/ppp/options

it works !!! 40 bits version on Win9x ...
for 128 bits encryption you have to be in US or Canada or to have a friend
who can give you the patch (thank you M$ ...)

bye ... :)
