w2k machine, otherwise you would get an error message saying:

Jul 12 10:23:53 htcengineers pppd[752]: No CHAP secret found for authenticating
domain\\billy

which means that your chap-secret file should contain the following entry:

billy * password *

that should do the trick.

if you had seen in the log file a domain name sent together with the username
to the pptp server, you would need:

domain\\billy * password *

Hope it helps... lemme know

Cheers,

Patrick

Hey!
From what I can see, no domain name is being given to your pptp server
by your w2k machine, otherwise you would get an error message saying:
<tt>Jul 12 10:23:53 htcengineers pppd[752]: No CHAP secret found
for authenticating domain\\billy</tt>
which means that your chap-secret file should contain the following
entry:
<tt>billy * password *</tt>
that should do the trick.
  
if you had seen in the log file a domain name sent together with the
username to the pptp server, you would need:
<tt>domain\\billy * password *</tt>
Hope it helps... lemme know
Cheers,
Patrick

I went through all the how-to, still I am not sure what is the problem,
I
 was able to get pptpd serves up on the Linux box but have not been
able to
 connect using w2k box!!!! any ideas
the chap-secret file format is not clear, specially the domain is that
local
 to the Linux box domain since I am running a Linux box as a server.
 Thanks
