Hi

hav' got the same problem on SuSE 9.3 Kernel 2.6.11.4-20. But I think it' more a probleme of the ppp-2.4.3 AND the kernel, if I dont't use the mppe (and mschap) the kernel doesn't block, but no crypt available.

I tried ppp-2.4.2 - this package doesn't block the kernel, but mppe support were rejected :-(

Currently I just use a 2.6.4-53 Kernel with ppp-2.4.2-39 because this works. So I just wait for a bug-fix ... ;-)

Hi Thomas,

I actually found out that kernel-patch-mppe has a bug with 64 bit kernels. It works fine with 32 bit though. There's a bug filed against it (304990) which I logged a few weeks ago and the maintainer is working on it.

I ended up using the MPPE/MPPC patch found at http://www.polbox.com/h/hs001/ which works fine, but just note that the name of the module will be ppp_mppe_mppc.

Cheers,

Pete
