> 1/ Could you confirm that this setting was working OK with rc1

this works with rc1. with rc3 a tcp-connection with port 1723 (pptp) is made
but the server sends nothing. then windows complains with error 651. on the
server-side there are no log-entries at all. so i have no hint, where the
problem can be.

you have to set up a vpn-connection with your windoze-machine. it is
important _not_ to force encryption, for testing is this ok.

Thanks Mike.

Note that the Win95 routine is similar but requires Dial Up Networking
Update 1.3 and
both the Win95 and Win98 need the vpnupdate (free from Microsoft) to be
installed
first.  You're going to have to hunt around a little for these files as they
keep
moving.  However, here are a couple places to try first:

Windows 95

http://www.microsoft.com/windows95/downloads

Windows 98

http://www.microsoft.com/windows98/downloads/corporate.asp


        1a. For Win95 machines install the DUN 1.3.

        1b. For Win98 machines use the add-remove programs tool to uninstall the
VPN
software. Some of the OEM's don't install this properly. Re-Install it using
the
add-remove programs tool. Go to windows setup (tab) select communications
and press the
details button.  Scroll down and check the VPN support.

        2. Install the vpupdate for your particular machine (win95/98 not 98SE).

take a little nap here...

Once your Machine is back

   1. Go to dial-up networking (usually
start->programs->Accessories->communications->Dial-up Networking) YMMV

   2. Click make new connection

   3. Name the Connection whatever you'd like.

   4. Select Microsoft VPN adapter as the device.

   5. Click next.

   6. Type in the ip address or hostname of your pptp server.

   7. Click next.

   8. Click finish

   9. Right-click on the intranet icon.

  10. Select properties.

  11. Choose server types.

  12. Check require encrypted password.  It is also recommend that you check
require data encryption.  Without the data encryption, your Virtual Private
Network
becomes a Virtual Public Network.

  13. Uncheck netbeui, ipx/spx compatible.

  14. Click tcp/ip settings.

  15. Turn off use IP header compression (May not be necessary).

  16. Turn off use default gw on remote network.

  17. Click ok.

  18. Start that connection.

  19. Type in your username and pw (yadda, yadda, yadda).

  20. Once it finishes its connection your up.

i'll test that.
