[pptp-server] pptp through adsl (packetlose)

[Justin Kreger]

Its going to be your dsl provider and the phone lines at the two
sites... odds are ( i have seen this lots at some sites, and none at
others) that the dsl line is going down for a few seconds, and then
comming back up.  There is not much you can do... but check your
connections for currosion, and call the phone company/dsl provider.
