[pptp-server] pptp client

Sat Nov 25 09:57:33 CST 2000

I've setup poptop on my netmax firewall, and I can get into it fine fron windoze bozes...but trying to get in with pptp from a linux box is just not going anywhere fast. I went thru this once before and made no notes...maybe someone out yonder has seen this:

As I said, in from windoze ok, in from pptp in linux yields an error that seems to be failure of peer to authenticate:

One episode from log:
