Hi there,

I am having a problem setting up a pptp VPN connection from a WinNT 4.0
Box to a SuSE 7.0 Server running the pptp daemon that comes with the
distribution.
I thought to have set up the Linux pptp Server all right, but when I try
to connect to it I get an Error 629 on the Windows NT machine and the
following in the pptp.log file...

 
--- SNIP ---

I guess the Fatal signal 11 and the line before that are where the
problem is, but I couldn't find anything in the FAQ's. I found some
postings on the pptp mailing list concerning this problem on SuSE 6.4,
but no real answer given....
What'S wrong???

Any help greatly appreciated
Norbert
