[pptp-server] Windows NT client 720 error

[Pete Starzewski]

Hi,

I'm new to the list and PoPToP.  I installed it and it is working 
GREAT!!!....with one exception.  I have an NT4 client that keeps getting a 
720 error when it tries to connect.  I searched the archives and I have 
seen several questions asked about it but never a reply.  I have other NT4 
systems that connect fine.  Here is the log entries from the failed connect.

Based on what I see, my guess is that it is choking when the IP address is 
assigned.  I only see the following message in the logs that looks fishy 
and does not appear on a successful connect.

Received PPTP Control Message (type: 12)

Can anyone tell me what this means?

Thanks,

Pete
