Hi James,
If you followed my directions, you would have added 3 columns to the
/etc/ppp/chap-secrets file, for each entry.
As noted on
http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/howto-diagnosis.phtml#required_to_auth_ip
some version of pppd requires 4 items for an entry. You should be
fine just adding "*" as the fourth item of your entry, e.g.:
"DOMAIN\\USERNAME" "*" mypassword "*"
Feel free to keep me posted on your progress.
Still no luck. However, in searching for answers, I've come across
some info that the PPTP client may not work through IP address
translation, as we have here. This info is a few years old, so I
don't know if it still applies.

Hi James,
Haven't got any problems about that myself.
Tried disabling / reconfiguring your firewall etc. ?
Do you get any errors when using the pptp command?
Are you past the previous problem ?
PS. Could you please post to the list, instead of me personally.
Sorry, I didn't mean to send to you directly. I just forgot to change
the "To:" address to the list.
Here is my chap-secrets
JKNOTT "*" xxxxx "*"
I have these lines in options.pptp
require-mppe
require-mschap-v2
My peers file wwwww contains
# Server IP: mail.yyyyy.com
name zzzzz\\jknott
The error messages I get are
suse:/etc/ppp # pptp mail.yyyyy.com call wwwww
Using interface ppp0
Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/4
Terminating on signal 15
Connection terminated.
Modem hangup
In the above, I have changed the passwords and server names etc. Also,
if I have a remotename line in the peers file, I get that error message:
/usr/sbin/pppd: The remote system (wwwww\jknott) is required to
authenticate itself
/usr/sbin/pppd: but I couldn't find any suitable secret (password) for
it to use to do so.
tnx jk
