Use this URL for the kernel patch for openssl support: http://www.planetmirror.com/pub/mppe/linux-2.4.16-openssl-0.9.6b-mppe.patch.gz
to be a server, you will need pptpd, get that from http://www.poptop.org/ or from here: http://planetmirror.com/pub/mppe/pptpd-1.1.3.tar.gz also, you will need the source for ppp-2.4.1, and the 2 patches for it http://planetmirror.com/pub/mppe/ppp-2.4.1-MSCHAPv2-fix.patch.gz http://planetmirror.com/pub/mppe/ppp-2.4.1-openssl-0.9.6-mppe-patch.gz You must apply the patches in the correct order else ppp wont compile properly also, there is a howto at www.poptop.org specifically for Redhat Linux, but can be reasonably easily applied to debian, slackware, suse, and mandrake with a few path changes here and there also there is a pptp client for linux - there may be a suse package called pptp-linux and there is definitely a debian package for it. -----Original Message----- From: John covici [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, 21 June 2002 9:04 p.m. To: Michael Johansen Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: vpn support for 2.4.18 and up If I go to ftp.rubyriver.com and get his patch for 2.4.17 (rev2) there is no mention of kernel version in the patch -- could you tell me to what your remarks refer?
