[pptp-server] No dice

I posted the problem I was having a couple days ago. Since then I haven't 
been able to check the list since my wife had a baby and all.. But things 
have slowed down once again.

The trouble I was having is that I can connect just fine from a computer on 
the local lan but if I unplug that same computer from the lan and dial-up to 
Qwest then try to connect, the server just fills the pptpd log file with the 
following messages:

My config files are as follows:

[bob at dns bob]$ cat /etc/pptpd.conf
speed 115200
localip 192.168.1.61-80
remoteip 192.168.0.61-80

[bob at dns bob]$ cat /etc/ppp/options
###
# /etc/ppp/options - options for pppd
#
debug
name 64.78.134.67
auth
require-chap
proxyarp

Nothing strange in there that I can see but I can't connect still. No error, 
it just tries to connect forever..

Thanks for any suggestions anyone has,

Bob Weaver
