[pptp-server] Problems connecting to PoPToP

[Jim Sifferle]

All,

I am having problems connecting to my PoPToP server.  When the client has a 
specific IP defined in chap-secrets, the user can logon and access the network
just fine.  However, when I don't have a specific IP defined in chap-secrets,
and I have a range of IPs defined in pptpd.conf, I can't connect.  Looking in 
the ppplog.txt files on the client, IPCP is not negotiating an IP address from 
the range defined in pptpd.conf.  Why would this occur?  I have included my 
/etc/ppp/options file, /etc/pptpd.conf file, and an example 
/etc/ppp/chap-secrets file.  

I am running RedHat 7.1, PPPD v2.4.1 w/ openssl, mschap, smbpasswd, and 
chapms-strip-domain patches, and PPTPD v1.1.2.  Any help would be much 
appreciated.

Regards,

Jim
