one problem here is the pptpd.conf u have your remoteip should be at the same subnet with your localip for the proxyarp option to work 

example: localip 192.168.2.1
         remoteip 192.168.2.65-92


Hope that helps :p

Rex

Thanks for those trying to help...

Here's more info...

Server is on SuSE 7.2 box behind FlowPoint 2200 DSL Router setup tp
allow PPTP per support documentation as follows:

 remote ipfilter insert input accept -p 47 -da <pptp server ip
addr>
<remote name>
 remote ipfilter insert output accept -p 47 -sa <pptp server ip
addr>
<remote name>
 remote ipfilter insert input accept -p tcp -dp 1723 -da <pptp server
ip addr> <remote name>
 remote ipfilter insert output accept -p tcp -sp 1723 -sa <pptp server
ip addr> <remote name>

Client is WinME connected to internet via Sprint Broadband wireless ISP
connection...

My options.ppp0 file reads:

lock
debug
auth
+chap
+chapms
+chapms-v2
mppe-40
mppe-128
mppe-stateless
name ids
proxyarp

pptpd.conf is:

speed 115200
option /etc/ppp/options.ppp0
debug
localip 192.168.254.100
remoteip 66.1.174.170-179  


Hope this helps someone give me an idea...

Thanks,

-ADM

Upon connecting via my LAN to the PPTPD server running on SuSE 7.2 I
get:

pppd[1766] cannot determine Ethernet address for proxy ARP

Upon disconnecting I get:

pptpd[1765] GRE read error bad file descriptor

and

pptpd[1765] CTRL PTY read or GRE write failed (pty,gre) = (-1,-1)

Although I seem to login OK on the client side locally on the LAN-

Any attempts through the router from the internet fail w/ the error:

751: Connection Refused Even though the router should be configured
properly AND the log files seem to show activity from the correct remote
ip

I am really stumped here- any help would be greatly appreciated.
