We're trying to configure a Bering router for running pptp tunnels. The 
router itself is the server, with Windows clients connecting to it over 
a broadband radio network ( and then going out to the Internet).

We've used Bering for IPSEC in a similar setup, and that works
fine. The Bering version is 1.0-rc2.

I've tested the pptp setup with a Red Hat pptpd server and a windows
client, and that works OK. Then I've tried to run the pptpd 
on a Bering box, and this doesn't work.

I installed ppp.lrp and pptpd.lrp for Bering, put in the same
configuration as on the Red Hat box, and started pptpd.

The Windows client return error 651, and basically says that
something went wrong ( stopping the pptpd results in a different
error, so it makes a difference whether it runs or not).
Tcpdump on the Bering box's interface shows that 'ack' packets are 
exchanged between LRP and Windows boxes, but  there's nothing
at all in the system logs, so it looks like the communication never gets as 
far as trying any authentication. Iptables let's everything through, and
the two systems can ping each other, so the basic setup is OK.

Has anyone managed to get this working on a Bering distribution ?
Most of the documentation I've come across is about  is using
ppp/pptp to get out from an LRP box.


Best regards
