Hello,



The Diagnosis HOWTO was right, I was wrong.
At least the solution suggested in the HOWTO was right, but the explanation is \
misguiding. I mean this sentence (about "LCP ProtRej id=0x??"):
"Cause of this situation is not known, but it may be due to the PPTP Server being \
configured for 40-bit encryption only."

In fact, nomppe works as require-mppe, and require-mppe seems to cause ProtRej \
messages. The nomppe-128 option suggested in the HOWTO doesn't switch to 40-bit, it \
forces 128-bit encryption! Look:


with nomppe-128:
---------------------------------------------------
rcvd [CCP ConfReq id=0x3f <mppe +H -M +S -L -D -C>]
sent [CCP ConfAck id=0x3f <mppe +H -M +S -L -D -C>]
MPPE 128-bit stateless transmit compression enabled
---------------------------------------------------


with nomppe-40:
---------------------------------------------------
rcvd [CCP ConfReq id=0x25 <mppe +H -M -S +L -D -C>]
sent [CCP ConfAck id=0x25 <mppe +H -M -S +L -D -C>]
MPPE 40-bit stateless compression enabled
---------------------------------------------------

(and with "require-mppe-40 nomppe-128" it doesn't work).


Now it works. Thank you for the great program!


Best regards,
Ilya
