Hi,

I have retried the configuration quite a few times
now. 
Now the error I get is "MPPE required but peer
refused". Have confirmed that the required patches to
pppd and the kernel have been applied. The
poptop.org's faq mentions about this message as
follows  : "the local pppd is refusing to accept the
level of MPPE encryption required by the peer. The
peer insists on that level, and so it terminates the
connection."  Have tried quite a few options related
to MPPE.

Still searching but any hints would be appreciated.

Thanks

Yogesh
