Lo all, Very arb and weird problem... I've followed all the docs that google = could return (they all mostly the same in any case), and yeah... My PPTP server *does* work.. As long as I don't terminate more than one connection at a time to the server *shock horror*. For some reason (and = I suspect I know why), ppp insist on only using one device for all the incoming PPTP connections from poptop. Obviously not right, and err, = ja.. I need to get this fixed... Very urgently as well. My streamlined ppp.conf: pptp: accept dns allow mode direct disable chap disable mschap disable mschapv2 enable lqr enable pap set device localhost:pptp set dial set dns 192.168.1.1 set ifaddr 192.168.1.1 10.255.255.1-10.255.255.254 255.255.255.255 set log Connect set login set radius /etc/ppp/ppp.radius set server /tmp/loop "" 0177 set timeout 0 Now, I suspect that it is only using one device (regardless of the = number of connections), due to the device (socket) specification. But frankly, if = I don't specify it what device to use, it won't even be able to operate a single pptp connection. Any advice is greatly appreciated. I need to get this resolved asap. I didn't send any logs from ppp.... PPP and the PPTP connections works = 100% - even with Radius. The problem is purely that PPP always uses the same device, regardless of the amount of connections (ala tun0). My kernel = does have allot of tunX devices, and ifconfig -a lists at least two = available. Still, ppp only uses the one. I'm sad to say, but if I can't get this to work, I'm going to have to be forced to scrap my BSD box for a W2K Adv server... *sigh*, at least = their RAS server works okish... Thanks, me
