hi ,

after a bit of struggle, i could make the win98 client login through the
microsoft vpn adapter.
but, after this, neither the client nor the server show up with any
addresses which i configured in the
/etc/pptpd.conf.
my /etc/pptpd.conf' file is as follows:
speed 19200
debug
localip 192.168.1.230
remoteip 192.168.1.235-240
logfile /var/log/pptpd.log
pidfile /var/run/pptpd.pid.

and etc/ppp/options is attached here.

the client shows that he is able to login and even /var/log/pptpd.log as
well as /var/log/messages show that the client has logged in. but
strangely enough, 'ifconfig' on the server does not show the above
address and neither the "winipcfg' on the client.
any ideas?
