similar to: VPN via PPTP and MPPE

Ok, on to new swamps. I would like to enable PPTP on CentOS4 to accept connections from clients running MicroSoft Win2K and XP pro from outside our firewall. I am testing pptpd-1.2.3-0 and tells me that I need kernel support for MPPE, which I suppose is MicroSoft's own form of PtoP encryption. Is there a way of doing this without rebuilding the kernel? If so, how? Regards, Jim --

Hello, We can't connect to our pptp server through our CentOS gateway with a XP client. The linux client is working but not the XP client. I know for a fact that the pptp server is not the problem because if I connect the XP machine directly to the Internet the pptp vpn is working. I know about the pptp-conntrack-nat patch, I compiled the 2.4.9 kernel, with patch-o-matic-ng-20060511.tar.bz2

Hi, configuration of PPTP for windows clients , using MPPE causes kernel crash. It is a known bug which is in bugzilla on RedHat https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=248716 I was thinking that CentOS 5.1 has allready a kernel patched , but as it seems NOT. Or am i wrong?

Hi guys, I have samba domain controller running at a client. It's a fairly simple and straightforward setup, uses smbpasswd for auth, nothing fancy. The client wants to be able to vpn in and access their files. I setup pptp, and use the built in WindowsXP client. After establishing the vpn connection, I can access the domain controller. I get asked for my username and pass - type in

My goal is to make VPN access to our Samba PDC (FreeBSD 7.0) so that users can access there home shares from Windows clients. I have read the instructions at http://samba.org/ftp/unpacked/lorikeet/pppd/final-report.pdf, but I can't make it work. Don't know if is due to my lack of skills or has something to do with the Popop functionality in FreeBSD. Following the instructions, i made a

I'm wondering if I'm seeing a regression of 5616 with 3.4.8. I'm trying to set-up pptpd with winbind, which I'm doing on two machines on Debian lenny, and I'm trying on Debian Squeeze now. The Windows client is saying "Error 778: It was not possible to verify the identity of the server." The logs say that everything is ok, and that the client is hanging up the

hi guys, I'm having trouble accessing samba share files from a windows xp client using a vpn pptp connection. I configured samba and it works excellent on the LAN but when i connect through pptp and access the samba server \\192.168.3.1 I can see the shared folders but when i try to browse them, windows hangs (4 a change!) for a while then returns "the specified network name

Hi I've been using linux to give VPN access to my corporate LAN using the following software: Centos 5.2 x86 kernel 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5xen pptpd (poptop) 1.3.4 ppp 2.4.4 The Centos server has directly connected the Internet Router, on one interface (eth1) and the LAN on another (eth0) and it works as the firewall/VPN server of my LAN. It mostly works, however, if I try to connect using

I am running Poptop 1.1.4 VPN server, Samba 3.0.6, RH 9 (2.4.20-8 patched for mppe-mppc). When the end user connects via VPN, they can create a share to the samba shared folder that was created. When they clost the explorer window, then reopen the shared drive from the "My Computer" view, the share can not be re-opened with the error that the mapped drive is alreay in use. I have

Thank you, Rowland. I will be going by this afternoon and I will check. The thing is, if it IS "\", how do I enter that into the pptp-options file? The entire list of parameters are in quotes, so do I need a double-backslah or anything?

I am not sure how to determine the separator, but 'which' shows "/usr/bin/ntlm_auth". I already ran it while on-site. Since it is broken, I cannot remote in. I will have to show up on-site again, possibly Thursday.

That is client setup. We have that under control. Our Linux users use Network Manager to connect and our Windows users use the stuff built into Windows. My problem is server-side. The server is a PPTP VPN (running via pptpd) and I have to add the lines below to make it work. plugin winbind.so ntlm_auth-helper "/usr/bin/ntlm_auth --helper-protocol=ntlm-server-1" Now, that allows ALL

Hi. I'm trying to add a client running Windows XP Professional SP2 to a PDC server running Samba 3.0.13 over a VPN tunnel made with PPTP. The VPN tunnel works without problem, and I can see the shared resources on the PDC from the client searching the server with its hostname (I can access to \\server). When I try to add the client to the PDC, Windows XP ask me for the root user, but after
