[pptp-server] pptp and pppoe

[George Vieira]

I think your problem is the "timeout sending Config-Requests".. not the
other one.

Can you connect locally from another machine on the local LAN to check that
PPTP is working properly? It should work locally as well as over the net..
if it does work properly locally then the problem with when it over the net
and nothing (well not really) to do with PPTP.

Also, Have you turned off "Use remote as default gateway" on your Windows
machines (PPTP clients)???

thanks,

Hi,

I've try localip in 192.168.0.245 with remoteip in 192.168.0.26 and
I added nodefaultroute in /etc/ppp/options.pptp 

No changes, I still get:
CTRL: PTY read or GRE write failed (pty,gre)=(5,6)  

What else can I try, I'm really lost.

Thanks for your help
JPJ
