Hi, I've just discovered that ppp on my recent FreeBSD-stable system (FreeBSD gurney.reilly.home 4.0-STABLE FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE #0: Tue Jul 4 14:30:20 EST 2000 root@gurney.reilly.home:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GURNEY i386), when used with the pptpclient port (aka pptp-linux-1.0.2), won't authenticate to a Windows 2000 server running Microsoft's VPN. A little poking through the ppp logs shows that it doesn't like AUTHPROTO[4] 0xc227 (unknown). A bit of web digging shows that that is the so-called Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) defined in RFC 2284, and described at: http://www.networksorcery.com/enp/protocol/eap.htm a) Does anyone have this implemented for our PPP, and is looking for someone to test patches? b) Does anyone know of any way to force said Windows 2000 system to authenticate using something like CHAP or MS-CHAP, that our PPP _does_ understand?
