Hello everybody,

I'm trying to install and configure the VPN network on my LAN. My VPN server is on Linux machine(kernel 2.4.2). I am using pptpd (http://poptop.lineo.com/) for this. I want to configure the n/w as

Linux/Win<-->Linux VPN<->Internet<->Linux VPN<--Linux/Win Client Server Server Client

but just for the begining I installed only one server(kernel 2.4.2 with pptpd) and on Win98 client trying to connect it.

Linux VPN Server<----->Win98 client 192.168.0.32 192.168.0.0.112

But I'm not able connect.Both the machines are on the same LAN(using simple hubs not switches).The error I'm getting as below.

/usr/sbin/pppd: The remote system is required to authenticate itself /usr/sbin/pppd: but I couldn't find any suitable secret (password) for it to use to do so. /usr/sbin/pppd: (None of the available passwords would let it use an IP address.)

Please help me.I'm stuck on this for a whole week. Thanks in advance.
