Install DES, then run "su". If ppp is built on a machine without DES, it won't need DES (and M$-CHAP will be disabled). This sounds like you've `poluted' your non-DES machine with some DES binaries (or have you done a binary installation ? - if so, the problem is with `make release'). > >Fix: > > Since ppp now requires DES, and many FreeBSD-at-home folks run PPP > but have no want/need for running Kerberos, the better fix might > be to have the DES dist not enable Kerberos by default. [.....] I've got des installed on one of my machines here, without the necessity for Kerberos. Maybe it's getting close to the time where we've gotta sort out the -ldes stuff in release.....
