[pptp-server] pppd 2.4.1 kernel 2.4.5 and this dumb stupid p pp_mppe.o

I am currently trying to get this going. I re-comiled my 2.4 kernel (I don't
know the minor revision because it is whatever Cadera 3.1 version comes
installed)  And I don't have a ppp.o or a ppp_mppe.o file after I do a
make dep, make clean, make modules SUBDIRS=drivers/net.

Next to PPP (point-topoint protocol) support, I have a <M> so it builds it
as a module. As far as the 'monolithically' goes, I don't know anything
about that. There has to be something that I am missing because I can't seem
to build ppp.o or ppp_mppe.o. Please help!

PS I am refering to the following:
http://poptop.lineo.com/releases/PoPToP-RedHat-HOWTO.txt
If anyone knows of a more current doc please inform!

(Sorry if I sent this multiple times)
