Ahh! While mixing apples and oranges can make a nice juice, it doesn't work for vpn.

Using pptpclient instead is better :-)

I had pptp running in a terminal session started in a window from my workstation in fbsd-mode.
Now I booted my workstation to try in windows. Apparently pptp didn't get stopped properly, because when I now want to run pptp again, I get this error message:

warn[open_unixsock:pptp_callmgr.c:308]: Call manager for 123.123.123.123 is already running.
fatal[callmgr_main:pptp_callmgr.c:124]: Could not open Unix socket for 123.123.123
fatal[launch_callmgr:pptp.c:214]: Call manager exited with error 256

But ps is not showing any ppp, pptp or call processes.
Neither is netstat showing anything I can relate to.

I could boot the machine, but then I'd have to walk 20m to power it off and on to reset the isdnadapter. Too late for that now.

Leif
