pptpd server - login problem
hi,
bucht:/# /etc/init.d/pptpd start
Starting PPTP Daemon: pptpd.
bucht:/# tail -f /var/log/daemon.log
Nov 1 09:07:24 bucht pptpd[2729]: MGR: Manager process started
Nov 1 09:07:24 bucht pptpd[2729]: MGR: Maximum of 100 connections
available
Now i try to connect from windows xp over a fresh created vpn
connection to this server. the server is accessible with a valid
ip-address.
here is what i get:
(i already allowed the port to be used through the firewall)
bucht:/ablage/torrent# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 1723 -j ACCEPT
Nov 1 09:12:34 bucht pptpd[2739]: CTRL: Client 192.168.0.1 control
connection started
Nov 1 09:12:34 bucht pptpd[2739]: CTRL: Starting call (launching
pppd, opening GRE)
Nov 1 09:12:35 bucht pptpd[2739]: GRE:
read(fd=6,buffer=8058640,len=8196) from PTY failed: status = -1 error
= Input/output error, usually caused by unexpected termination of
pppd, check option syntax and pppd logs
Nov 1 09:12:35 bucht pptpd[2739]: CTRL: PTY read or GRE write failed
(pty,gre)=(6,7)
Nov 1 09:12:35 bucht pptpd[2739]: CTRL: Reaping child PPP[2740]
Nov 1 09:12:35 bucht pptpd[2739]: CTRL: Client 192.168.0.1 control
connection finished
On the windows side, i get error 619. can this be caused because there
is already an active ppp connection to my adsl-provider? i guess not?!
any ideas? Help is greatly appreciated! Please CC my address in mails
because iam not subscribed to this list.
Best regards
stefan
