trying to make PPP conn. from windows with MPPE encryption
When I try to set MPPE encryption on poptop and on the
windows client, I cannot connect and have this error in my logs:
MPPE required, but kernel has no support.
I tried with 2.4 and 2.6 but no success.
In forum search I read that MPPE was available in linode UML.
Anyone connect his/her linode with MPPE encryption on?
Thanks in advance,
Emin

Look for this in the next 2.6 Linode kernel release.

@jsidhu:
anyone even looking at this topic anymore?
Yes. I've held up the release of a 2.6.11 kernel, since it requires me to port to limiter over to it – a bunch of stuff moved around in UML.
Tell you what. I'll roll a new 2.6.10 kernel this evening, with the MPPE patch you requested.

@Internat:
is mppe in the 2.4's as well? because i was running the 2.4's when it said it wasnt in, and i was using the latest at the time
No. It was in a 2.4 kernel long ago, but is no longer. Use 2.6.10-linode12 (and 2.6 kernels from here on out) if you need MPPE.
I'm curious if it works for you guys – please let me know.

If you went from 2.4 –> 2.6, do the mv /lib/tls /lib/tls-disabled

Thanks caker for the mppe patch
yah for encryption!
problem is, user a cant connect to user b and vice versa
both can connect to server and tlak to server, but nothing can talk to each other
any ideas?
