For the benefit of those on debian-user (this has already been discussed on pptp-server) --
There is currently a licensing question that prevents legal distribution of a pppd binary with MPPE/MS-CHAP support. I am currently pursuing this question with pppd upstream, and will provide either unofficial .debs, or step-by-step instructions for building such .debs, pending the outcome of the licensing discussion. I understand that the MPPE support is not currently in a state fit for inclusion in the official Debian packages, because it makes pppd incompatible with unpatched kernels. This issue is also being looked into. I am not currently subscribed to debian-user. Please direct any questions to the pptp-server mailing list or to me personally.
