[pptp-server] label not found

Hi, Privet,

You are using the version of PPTPD compiled for FreeBSD. When being compiled for
FreeBSD there are some changes in the code to support the FreeBSD (user) PPP
instead of the 'normal' linux pppd program that is usually discussed on this
list. The config for the FreeBSD PPP is in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf and when it is
called it is passed the parameters "-direct pptp" for which you need a section
with the heading "pptp" in the config file.

This is all nice in theory, but I have been playing with this under FreeBSD for
some time now, and I haven't managed to get it to work at all. There does not
seem to be any data passed between the PPTPD and the PPP process. I can't even
get it to connect without any encryption at all.

I have also tried the SLIRP that was recommended by someone on this list (Harald
Vogt, http://www.serc.nl/people/vogt/vpn/) and it doesn't compile. This is
unfortunate, as I would have liked to test that solution as well.

If you want to get it working with the linux pppd version, you might have to try
compiling PPTPD without the FreeBSD switches, so it includes the code to talk to
the linux version. I haven't tried this though.

Chris
