- From your HOWTO;
5.2 Q: I'm connecting at only 40 bits.  How do I connect at 128 bits?

A: This is probably a client (Windows) problem.  The key file for
Windows 95/98 
is pppmac.vxd, located in c:\windows\system.  I suspect this also
applies to Windows 
ME, but I don't have a system to test.  There are at least 4 versions
of this 
file.  All versions seem to be interchangable.   The versions are:
4.10.1903 
(Win95), 4.10.1998 (Win98), 4.10.2002 (VPNUPD.EXE) and 4.10.2222
(Win98SE).  
Version 4.10.2222 has both a 40 bit and 128 bit version.  If you find
the file on 
your client, right click and go to properties.  If the internal name
is something 
like "PPPMAX (US/Canada Only, Not for Export)", you have the 128 bit
version.  
Anything else is the 40 bit version.

The file from WinME is version 4.90.0.3000
If you right click and go to properties, the internal name is "PPPMAC
(High Encryption)"

Just thought you might like to know...
