OK, I have been having a lot of trouble getting encryption working with a
RH6.2 box and a win98 box.
I have the following setup:
RH 6.2 box running with a 2.2.20 kernel
pptp-1.0.1
pppd-2.4.1
and I had to go here to find the kernel patches for ppp and mppe
http://ftp.samba.org/ftp/unpacked/ppp/
(pppd compiles from this archive but does not work right. The kernel
modules seem to work though)
The problem is I turn on encryption on the windows box and then try
connecting. I get the dreaded Error 742 message. I look at my linux box
and all of the modules are present (ppp_deflate, bsd_comp, ppp_mppe, ppp,
slhc).
My options file looks like this:
lock
debug
name flame
procyarp
+chapms-v2
mppe-40
mppe-128
mppe-stateless
I have tried several combinations of removing the mppe lines with no
success.
What am I doing wrong? Also is there a cononoical archive of all the right
patches/kernel modules/etc that I need to be looking at? I can't help but
think that there might be something that didn't compile right.
TIA,
Robert
