Subject: [pptp-devel] pptp-linux-1.1.0-rc3 available for testing

G'day,

Release candidate 3 of PPTP Client 1.1.0 is available for testing by the
development team.  Packages have been built for Debian and Red Hat on
Alpha and Intel.

        http://quozl.netrek.org/pptp/
        http://quozl.linux.org.au/pptp/

Changelog

        - allow activation as a psuedo-tty child process from pppd.
        - ADSL modem quirks handler by [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        - enhance bad FCS error message.
        - ported to FreeBSD and NetBSD.

The activation as a psuedy-tty child process from pppd works for me,
provided I include options 'logfd 2 nodetach', otherwise what happens is
that pppd (2.4.0) diagnostic messages are sent through the pty to the
GRE encapsulator.  This causes the 'no GRE from server' symptom.

Indicator 1: if you have considerably more GRE packets sent by the
client than there are LCP packets logged by the client.

Indicator 2: examining GRE packets using tcpdump -X shows they contain
text messages that pppd would normally emit.
