[pptp-devel] LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests

SourceForge Headquarters 1320 Columbia Street Suite 310 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Hi All

I've currently got this situation (log below).  
I'm trying to connect from my FC4 workstation, through my ipcop 1.3
firewall/router to a DLink VPN router over the internet.  My internet
connection is working fine of course, and I can ping the server (the
logs below will illustrate that), but I keep getting the 'timeout
sending Config-Reequests'  message.  I can't figure this out.

It seems that I do receive a couple of GRE packets back from the VPN
server (I can see them in tcpdump too), but then it times out with more
config requests.  Does anybody have any ideas?

Any help would be appreciated.
