[pptp-server] Quick question about client side encryption

[Jason Osborne]

Sure, no problem. I have included both options files here. I have left the
mppe stuff commented out. Pay no attention to that. Did this earlier to
allow Windows 98 First Edition to connect without Unsupported Protocol
errors.

==> vpn.options <==
lock
debug
name server
auth
mru 1450
mtu 1450
require-chap
proxyarp
#+chap
#+chapms
#+chapms-v2
#mppe-128
#mppe-40
#mppe-stateless
ms-wins 192.168.0.1
ms-wins 192.168.0.1
ms-dns 192.168.0.1
ms-dns 209.30.0.9
ms-dns 209.30.0.100

==> options <== (isdn options file)
lock

Jason:

What is in your current /etc/ppp/option.vpn file?
Need a quick look, may not be the same as your earlier post.
Mine works with like that no problems.
I think all you need is "require encrypted passwords" on the client.
Please don't post in html
