Vern, you are my hero!  I got it working by modifying my options.pptp to look
like yours.  I can't tell anyone what the silver bullet is, as my fiancee
will kill me if I spend any more time in front of a computer on a Sunday.
I just had to try if you had it working and, thanks to you, I did.  :)

Of course, life is not entirely perfect...what patch for pppd would fix
the following messages:

Apr  1 15:37:59 firewall pppd[10875]: In file /etc/ppp/options: unrecognized option 'require-mppe'                                                       
Apr  1 15:38:46 firewall pppd[10879]: In file /etc/ppp/options: unrecognized option 'require-mppe-stateless'

It looks like I must be missing a patch.

Keith
