[pptp-server] Win95 Client not connecting to NT4 VPN Server behind RH6.2 Firewall

[Jerry Vonau]

What options are you using with the client?
There are a few vpn updates around also.
The 128bit upgrade may not allow 40bit to connect, locks out 40bit mode to force
128bit. Perhaps the DUN1.3 upgrade needs to be uninstalled, reinstalled.
What level of encryption does the win2k report?
