+Setting up a Linux PPTP Client with WinNT PPTP Server
+
+
+Setting up the Linux PPTP 1.0.2 client (and PPP 2.3.5) with Windows NT PPTP Server
+
+
+
+About the systems
+
+This document assumes the following:
+
+- remote machine name = orge
+
- domain remote machine belongs to = gnoll
+
- username on remote machine = billybob
+
- password for billybob = bobbybill
+
+We want to connect our local machine to the remote machine using PPTP. The
+remote machine is a Windows NT box while our local machine is a
+Linux box.
+
+
+
+
+
+PPP chap-secrets file
+
+Find the chap-secrets file which should be in /etc/ppp/. This
+file should look like this:
+
+
+
+| # chap-secrets |
+| # client | server | secret | IP adresses |
+| gnoll\\billybob | orge | bobbybill | |
+
+
+
+
+
+Setting up PPP debugging
+
+PPP debugging is handled by syslogd. To setup debugging open
+syslog.conf which should be found in /etc/ and add the following
+entry:
+
+
+daemon.debug /var/log/pppd.log
+
+
+
+
+Launching PPTP
+
+The following command is issued on the linux box to connect to the remote NT
+machine.
+
+
+pptp orge debug name gnoll\\billybob remotename orge
+
+
+
+
+Errors
+
+E=691
+This error occurs when you supply an incorrect username/password to the remote
+NT machine. Check the chap-secrets file and the command line where PPTP is
+launched.
+
+
+
+
+Testing
+
+
+- run 'ifconfig' and check that a ppp0 interface exists
+
- find P-t-P: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx from the output of ifconfig
+
- run 'netstat -i' and record the RX-OK and TX-OK values for ppp0
+
- type 'ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx'
+
- run 'netstat -i' again and see if the values for RX and TX increased.. if yes then it would appear to be working ok....... in theory anyway.
