[pptp-server] MPPE for Linux kernel 2.4.x and pppd-2.4.0

[Joey Coco]

Hello,

I'm not even getting that far. I've moved to 2.4, with 2.4.0 PPPD and the
below MPPE patch however, I'm getting the following pppd error:

Feb  4 11:50:01 demo pppd[1102]: Couldn't set tty to PPP
discipline: Invalid argument
Feb  4 11:50:01 demo
pptpd[1099]: GRE: read(fd=4,buffer=804d780,len=8196) from PTY
failed: status = -1 error = Input/output error
Feb  4 11:50:01 demo pptpd[1099]: CTRL: PTY read or GRE write failed
(pty,gre)=(4,5)


I did setup the /dev/ppp device:

crw-------   1 root     root     108,   0 Jan 30 08:54 /dev/ppp

And the following modules are loaded:

bsd_comp                4176   0 (unused)
ppp_deflate            40928   0 (unused)
ppp_generic            12672   0 [bsd_comp ppp_deflate]

Any ideas anyone?? I've read the README.linux file with pppd 2.4.0 and
it doesnt mention anything else..?

Thanks

-- Joe
