[pptp-server] RE: disconnected

[Greg Tibbitts]

I disabled the firewall and tried again. I get the following error after
which the pptpd process dies.

May 12 11:38:12 ds9 pppd[14656]: pppd 2.3.5 started by root, uid 0
May 12 11:38:12 ds9 pppd[14656]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyp0

In the past the GRE error has been from some sort of firewall
problem.  Is there a way to turn yours off temporarily so you can
test it?

The firewall isn't passing protocol 47 and/or letting stuff go through
port 1723.

Is there a way you can verify that the firewall is letting these things
through?
