The only error messages I get in the logs are
Can't locate module char-major-5
Can't locate module char-major-108

What are these modules for and where to find them?
Thanks again.

Hi everybody,
I am baffled by the following problem.
Here is what I have: 
SERVER SIDE

Red hat 6.1
Pptpd 1.0.0
Pppd 2.3.10
Mppe patch for 40 bit encryption applied

The modules load and register properly ( can see the corresponding lines in
the logs)

CLIENT SIDE

Windows 98 SE
Usual stuff + use defaullt gateway on network and IP header compression
CHECKED

PROBLEM:

If Require Data Encryption is UNCHECKED, everything works fine, I could see
everybody else and they could see me in the NN
If Required Data Encryption is CHECKED (I need data encryption) , I could
logon, ping everything at the other end by IP address and by name BUT
NOTHING in the NN. I can't map any drives because it can't find the
computers. I have ms-dns and ms-wins in the /etc/ppp/option file. The file
is as follows:

name xxxxx
debug
auth
ms-dns DNS SEREVR IP
ms-wins WINS SERVER IP
netmask 255.255.255.0
lock
chap
+chap
+chapms
+chapms-v2
defaultroute
proxyarp
mppe-40
mppe-128
mppe-stateless


If anyone knows what is causing this or had similar issues before please
help in resolving this problem. The only error I see in the logs is
something like 
Modprobe: can't locate module mod-char-5. Is it relevent?
Looking forward to hear from you and thanks a lot for the past help.
