With the default setting, it seems to pass through CHAP (0x80) Authentication. But - then, the MPPE encryption is not allowed - because MPPE compression requires MSChapV2 (0x81) Authentication... and, the VPN server doesn't authenticate that way. I notice there is a line in the ppp man page: For now, ppp can only get encryption keys from CHAP 81 authentication. But - the (Microsoft Win2000) VPN server I'm trying to talk do doesn't allow CHAP 81 authentication, but wants to use MPPE... - Dave Rivers - -- rivers@dignus.com Work: (919) 676-0847 Get your mainframe programming tools at http://www.dignus.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
