I only have pptpd on one machine. The other is a 2000 client the is using
the microsoft info. In my /etc/ppp/options file I have:

lock
debug
auth
+chap
proxyarp

Let me know if you have any ideas. Thanks

Interesting.  Did you check the /etc/ppp/options file?  Is it possible that
pptpd is the same on both machines?

I agree. One machine is named Jay and the other is VIP1. They are connected
through a crossover cable. There should be no name conflicts as far as I can
tell. Is there any config files that would help to check things out for me.
Thanks for helping.

The tunnel doesnt have anything to do with it, but TCPIP does.  You cant
have 2 machines with the same name on the same network.

I just have a crossover cable between the two systems. Does computer names
have anything to do with making the tunnel. I didn't think so, so I am not
sure why I am getting this error. Any more ideas would be appreciated.

Are you sure that there are no other machines on the network with that
computer name?

Hello list. Hopefully someone can help me with my problem. I am trying to
setup pptp on a Redhat 7.2 box. The user gets authenticated with CHAP but
then there is an error on the client end and then the client can no longer
connect to the pptp server. The error is:

A duplicate name exists on the network.

TCP/IP CP: reported error 52

If anyone has any ideas it would be a lifesaver.

Thanks
