Other distributions also add MPPE support in this way; Debian and SUSE included. Red Hat do not. I know Debian get their kernel-patch-mppe package from PPP CVS. I suspect Mandrake and SUSE did as well. You should check that the sources match what is in PPP CVS. To get PPP CVS onto your system, cd /usr/src # (or some other reasonable directory) cvs -d :pserver:cvs@pserver.samba.org:/cvsroot co ppp/linux/mppe If you've made changes to drivers/net/sha1.{c,h} and Mandrake got these from Frank Cusack's work that is in PPP CVS (directory linux/mppe), then you could post them here or to Frank. Matt Domsch, Jan Dubiec, and some others have also been working on the MPPE patch; they have posted to the PPTP mailing lists. If you logged a bug report with Mandrake, one would hope that they would elevate this report back to Frank. ;-) There is a risk that they will adjust their patch instead. -- James Cameron http://quozl.netrek.org/ HP Open Source, Volunteer http://opensource.hp.com/ PPTP Client Project, Release Engineer http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/
