 Thanks Kees!

 
 I read through your web pages - very nicely done, by the way!

 But - I'm afraid your /etc/ppp/ppp.conf doesn't work for me.

 Here's the current issue:

  The Microsoft VPN server I'm talking to is insisting on an encrypted
  MPPE connection at the LCP level.

  That connection requires MSChapV2 (0x81).

  If I add
	enable MSChapV2
  in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf - then our ppp client requires that the
  peer (the Microsoft VPN server) authenticate using MSChapV2.  But,
  the Microsoft VPN peer refuses that (it's configured to not use
  MSChapV2.


 So - I'm in the situation of both requiring and disallowing MSChapV2.

 Does anyone know if there is a way in /etc/ppp/ppp.conf to accomplish
 this?  Some people on the Linux lists suggested that the FreeBSD ppp
 might have a "noauth" option, which meant that the peer didn't have
 to authenticate itself - but I couldn't find such an option.

 Any pointers would be appreciated!
