Hi, 

Have just setup poptop on a server. Machines on the LAN seem to connect and function correctly (one win2k machine, one win98se machine), however, when a remote client (win98se) tries to connect, it fails with an error I can't seem to find anywhere in this mailing list, or anywhere else, below is the output of the log...

This is what happens when trying to connect from a remote dialup...

This is what occurs when connecting over the LAN...
