[Poptop-server] ppp / pam / samba /winbind

[Djeezus <dj...@sk...>]

Hi all,

I have a samba box which uses pam/winbindd to authenticate users via NT 
domain controllers, this saved me from having to recreate 500+ accounts on 
the samba.

Now I'd like to have "PopTop"(so in essence pppd) use pam/winbindd also for
authenticating remote users logging in to the same samba box.
I've applied the mppe-mppc patches to the kernel, compiled pppd with pam- 
support...
but this is where I'm stuck, here's my config files
-pam.conf-
ppp     auth    required        pam_nologin.so debug
ppp     auth    required        /lib/security/pam_winbind.so debug
ppp    auth    required        pam_unix.so debug
ppp    account required        pam_unix.so debug
ppp     account sufficient      /lib/security/pam_winbind.so debug
ppp    session required        pam_unix.so debug
ppp     session required        /lib/security/pam_winbind.so debug

-options.pptpd-
debug
name FTPTUX
lock
mtu 1450
mru 1450
proxyarp
noauth
login
ipcp-accept-local
ipcp-accept-remote
lcp-echo-failure 3
lcp-echo-interval 5
deflate 0
mppe required,no40,no56
mppc
noipdefault
require-mschap-v2
ms-wins 192.168.0.1
ms-dns 192.168.0.254

-pap-secrets-
* * "" *

that's it ...

when trying to connect from a Win2k client, "pptpd -f" says
/usr/sbin/pppd: The remote system is required to authenticate itself
/usr/sbin/pppd: but I couldn't find any suitable secret (password) for it 
to use to do so.

Any thoughts much appreciated
