[pptp-devel] Problem connecting to PPTP server

James Cameron <qu...@la...>To:ppt...@li...UnsubscribeMon, Apr 20 at 12:53 AMYour pppd debug log shows LCP ConfReq and no LCP ConfAck, yet the
tcpdump shows LCP ConfAck.  Looks like none of the received GRE
packets are getting through.

Everyone:
I know this looks suspiciously like a firewall issue but the firewall is turned off.

I checked ip route before trying to connect:
kim@linux-nogg:~> ip route
default via 192.168.0.1 dev eth0 proto dhcp metric 100  
192.168.0.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.102 metric 100 

and after:
kim@linux-nogg:~> ip route
default via 192.168.0.1 dev eth0 proto dhcp metric 100  
192.168.0.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.102 metric 100 

The change looks right to me and I think the script in the folder at /ect/ppp/Ip-up.d/ is working correctly.
I don't think the router is filtering anything because the VPN tunnel works correctly in Windows.
This is April 25th and it is my 66th birthday. I was hoping for a less difficult problem to solve as a present but don't think I am getting my wish.
I would appreciate even wild speculation as to what to look for that might cause this.

Thanks.
