Hi, I'm trying to set up a vpn connection to the university library by using pptpclient. In other OS's this takes around 10 seconds, but in FreeBSD this seems very difficult to do, and I've no idea why. It looks like there is a connection made, but after a minute or two it just disconnects and still unable to access the vpn. My ppp.conf is: EUR: set authname "xxxx@xxxx.xx" set authkey "xxxxxxx" set timeout 0 set ifaddr 0 0 add vpn-eur-pptp.eur.nl HISADDR disable ipv6cp The messages log says: Jun 2 22:12:16 yokozuna pptp[40950]: anon log[main:pptp.c:314]: The synchronous pptp option is NOT activated Jun 2 22:12:16 yokozuna pptp[40955]: anon log[ctrlp_rep:pptp_ctrl.c:251]: Sent control packet type is 1 'Start-Control-Connection-Request' Jun 2 22:12:16 yokozuna pptp[40955]: anon log[ctrlp_disp:pptp_ctrl.c:739]: Received Start Control Connection Reply Jun 2 22:12:16 yokozuna pptp[40955]: anon log[ctrlp_disp:pptp_ctrl.c:773]: Client connection established.

Has anyone here succeeded in setting up a working pptp vpn connection? Thanks in advance, Marco -- Kiss me twice. I'm schizophrenic.
