[pptp-server] win2k, pptpd 1.1.2, pppd 2.4.0 and Linux 2.4.2

Sun Apr 1 16:24:27 CDT 2001

HAH.

I take that back, those settings did make a difference.  It works.

At first I only added Gil's settings that I was missing - didn't work, then
I pasted the options file directly from his email.  Voila!!

The lines that I had but he didn't have were:
noauth, defaultroute, debug

With these lines, my Win9x/NT boxes worked fine, just not Win2K boxes.

I also just conclued that reverting back to pptpd 1.0.1 doesn't solve the
problem.

I am going to upgrade to kernel 2.4.3 now and verify it fixed the problem.

I just tried adding those setting w/ 2.4.2 kernel and pptpd 1.1.2.

Still the same problem.

Seems the 2.4.3 kernel fixes something???

I actually have it working with pptpd 1.1.2. In looking at Vern's
/etc/ppp/options file I noticed some differences with mine. I changed mine
as follows.

Changed:

	mtu 1400 -> mtu 1490
	mru 1400 -> mru 1490

Added:

	ipcp-accept-local
	ipcp-accept-remote
	lcp-echo-failure 3
	lcp-echo-interval 5
	deflate 0

My file is:

	lock
	mtu 1490
	mru 1490
	ms-wins 192.168.1.3
	ms-dns 192.168.2.2
	proxyarp
	auth
	+chap
	+chapms
	+chapms-v2
	ipcp-accept-local
	ipcp-accept-remote
	lcp-echo-failure 3
	lcp-echo-interval 5
	deflate 0
	mppe-128
	mppe-stateless

Since the last time I tried this, I've also upgraded to kernel version
2.4.3.
