Hi I have been trying to make my Linux kernel MPPE and PPTP aware. Tried downloading the i386.rpms (for pptp and mppe) from pptpclient.sourceforge.net and proceeded as per the James Cameron's howto (for Psyche - RH 8.0).
http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/howto-redhat-80.phtml
But, after proceeding through the entire cycle of rebuilding kernel modules et al, I still get a message (from pptp-command) that kernel is not supporting pptp.
a) pppd daemon does not start...same excuse. Kernel release version 2.4.18-14
b) On further investigation (modprobe -v pptp or mppe); it shows up an error in a file called ppp_generic.o saying 'uresolved symbol' at various lines of code.
c)
# kernel-modules/kmodinst.sh kernel-modules/new-2.4.18-14/ When i perform this action ...module dependencies command returns some errors.
Has anyone had any success in the same?
Pls help...as I need to connect to my Cable ISP's VPN box (thru ethernet) to access email.
Regards Deven
PS - A lot of RTFM has already happened, so lemme pre-empt that reply. ;-)
