Jaques, thanks for a quick reply. I am running with the patched pppd, but it seems that pppd is never started ( no output from either pptpd or pppd). Here is the tcpdump when the client tries to connect ( machine 254 is the Bering box). 14:06:00.623577 193.215.126.161.1140 > 193.215.126.254.1723: S 3294283594:3294283594(0) win 64240 <mss 1460,nop,nop,sackOK> (DF) 14:06:00.623667 193.215.126.254.1723 > 193.215.126.161.1140: S 1982670212:1982670212(0) ack 3294283595 win 5840 <mss 1460,nop,nop,sackOK> (DF) 14:06:00.623806 193.215.126.161.1140 > 193.215.126.254.1723: P 1:157(156) ack 1 win 64240 (DF) 14:06:00.623867 193.215.126.254.1723 > 193.215.126.161.1140: . ack 157 win 5840 (DF) 14:06:00.624179 193.215.126.254.1723 > 193.215.126.161.1140: R 1:1(0) ack 157 win 5840 (DF) This is really the only output, pptpd writes into system log when it starts, and no more ouput is produced. I've loaded the kernel modules and neither pptpd or pppd complains about anything missing. I've tried many different configurations in pptpd.conf and options files without any difference, so I don't see much point in attaching those files. To me it looks like something is wrong that can't be fixed only in configuration files. Cheers Geir > > We're trying to configure a Bering router for running pptp tunnels.
