Suse PPTPD error
« on: January 10, 2008, 10:33:32 AM »
i installed pptpd server on suse 10.1
thing is if you remove pptpd.conf from etc. win client can connect using any login name and pass.
but if you configure it properly it doesent start

i checked the /var/log/messages and found this

Jan 11 00:00:53 linuxserver pptpd[6325]: CTRL: Starting call (launching pppd, opening GRE)
