check it with a tcpdump to make sure that any packets are arriving..
 
tcpdump -x port 1723

Subject: [pptp-server] can't connect anymore


I had an @Home account and VPN worked great with PoPToP. We just moved and
got a new @Home account but VPN no longer works. When a client attempts to
connect via 'telnet IPaddress 1723' they get "Connection refused" and the
pptpd.log never shows a connection attempt.

I'm pretty sure my firewall is not the issue because I can turn it off
completely and it does the same thing. My guess is that @Home is blocking
VPN at my new location, although they repeatedly claim they do not block VPN
(I know, the reports of comcast at home <mailto:comcast at home>  blocking VPN are
rampant, but i'm not on comcast).

What can I try to figure out what the problem is? pptpd --debug doesn't give
any info since no connection is attempted.

Help!
