[pptp-server] Problems when going to 2.4.0

[Joey Coco]

Hello,

I've went to 2.4.0 on one of my box's to test it and it appears poptop
stopped working.

I used the same .config file from my 2.2.17 sources, and then even tried
compiling in everything as resident code, not modules.

I get an error 629: lost connection on win98 second edition, and the
following logs on the Linux side.

I'm using pppd-2.3.11, and then OpenSSL patches.  Is there a 2.4.0
specific patch I forgot about?? :

Oddly enough, when I build my kernel I get no modules at all, and I would
think that I would at least get a bsd_comp.o module..  a make
modules_install absolutely freaks out with depmod.  So I may have more
than one problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated...
