[pptp-server] pptp-linux to Win2k???

Greetings (and apologies for the not-quite on-topic),

Anyone managed to use linux pptp client to sucessfully connect to Win2k
pptp server?

I'm (hopefully) close, but getting

	"pppd[27042]: rcvd [CHAP Failure id=0x0 "E=649 R=0  V=3"]"

I take it that's MS DUN/RAS Error number 649?

The Win2k server logs that my account is not authorised for remote access
(or words to that effect) - which is consistent with MSKB Q266460 (but I'm
pretty sure the issue there is not the problem as others can pptp in to
that server).

I'm also pretty sure it's not a username/password issue as when I
fat-fingered the username I got "[CHAP Failure id=0x0 "E=691 R=1  V=3"]".

The MS-admins are concerned that I should explicitly specify the domain
I'm trying to authenticate to (which I find "odd", seeing as the server
appears to have found me) - but specifying domain\user didn't help.

This is with pptp-linux V1.0.2, kernel 2.2.17 and ppp2.3.11.

Anyone know how to solve this?

Thanks,
Neale.
