requirements: - mppe patched kernel (http://www.polbox.com/h/hs001/) - pptp client (http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/) needed for connection: - IP address or hostname - dns - automatic (usepeerdns) - name servers (ip) - authentication domain name - authentication - no (noauth) - yes - username - password - encryption - refuse 40 bit encr (nomppe-40) - refuse 128 bit encr (nomppe-128) - require stateless encr (mppe-stateful) - require mppe (require-mppe) - requires ppp-compress-18 (ppp_mppe) - refuse eap (refuse-eap) optional: - debug (debug dump) - reconnect on disconnect (persist) options: mppe-stateful Allow MPPE to use stateful mode. Stateless mode is still attempted first. The default is to disallow stateful mode. nomppe Disables MPPE (Microsoft Point to Point Encryption). This is the default. nomppe-40 Disable 40-bit encryption with MPPE. nomppe-128 Disable 128-bit encryption with MPPE. nomppe-stateful Disable MPPE stateful mode. This is the default. refuse-mschap With this option, pppd will not agree to authenticate itself to the peer using MS-CHAP. refuse-mschap-v2 With this option, pppd will not agree to authenticate itself to the peer using MS-CHAPv2. require-mppe Require the use of MPPE (Microsoft Point to Point Encryption). This option disables all other compression types. This option enables both 40-bit and 128-bit encryption. In order for MPPE to successfully come up, you must have authenticated with either MS-CHAP or MS-CHAPv2. This option is presently only supported under Linux, and only if your kernel has been configured to include MPPE support. require-mppe-40 Require the use of MPPE, with 40-bit encryption. require-mppe-128 Require the use of MPPE, with 128-bit encryption. require-mschap Require the peer to authenticate itself using MS-CHAP [Microsoft Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol] authentication. require-mschap-v2 Require the peer to authenticate itself using MS-CHAPv2 [Microsoft Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol, Version 2] authentication. require-eap Require the peer to authenticate itself using EAP [Extensible Authentication Protocol] authentication.
