[pptp-server] Linux clients can't connect after server kernel update from 2.4.2 to 2.4.12-ac5

[Paul Reed]

Hi Magnus,

I currently have a 128-bit MSCHAPv2 patched pptp link setup between a
2.4.9(server) and a 2.4.10(client) box ..
The server also hosts for a number of windows ME/98/2000 VPN clients.
Both linux boxes are redhat 7.1 with modified kernels.

I have yet to try later kernels, been really busy with other stuff, but i'm
sure it can be done.
If and when I do try newer kernels, I shall post a success story or my
problems on the list... :)

Let me know if you want my notes on the 2.4.9/10 setup .. i'll see if i can
find them.

I am also going to CC the list, as someone else maybe able to help as well
..  :)
Maybe someone who has it working would be willing to post thier setup notes
for a later kernel w/MSCHAP 128-bit patches etc ...
And Maybe one of these day's i'll set up a faq page like i've wanted to do
for some time ...
Unless there already is one being maintained somewhere .. then perhaps I
could contribute to it...

Anyways .. hope this helps,
