Hi Pfugl,
it seems you have a problem with GRE or a mistake in your configuration file.
Here are my configuration files. Maybe you find something usefull:
pptpd.conf
Code:
###############################################################################
# $Id: pptpd.conf,v 1.1 2005/06/10 07:18:16 jeanfabrice Exp $
#
# Sample Poptop configuration file /etc/pptpd.conf
#
# Changes are effective when pptpd is restarted.
###############################################################################
# TAG: ppp
# Path to the pppd program, default '/usr/sbin/pppd' on Linux
#
#ppp /usr/sbin/pppd
# TAG: option
# Specifies the location of the PPP options file.
# By default PPP looks in '/etc/ppp/options'
#
option /opt/etc/ppp/options.pptpd
# TAG: debug
# Turns on (more) debugging to syslog
#
#debug
# TAG: stimeout
# Specifies timeout (in seconds) on starting ctrl connection
#
# stimeout 10
# TAG: noipparam
# Suppress the passing of the client's IP address to PPP, which is
# done by default otherwise.
#
#noipparam
# TAG: logwtmp
# Use wtmp(5) to record client connections and disconnections.
#
#logwtmp
# TAG: bcrelay <if>
# Turns on broadcast relay to clients from interface <if>
#
#bcrelay eth1
# TAG: localip
# TAG: remoteip
# Specifies the local and remote IP address ranges.
#
# Any addresses work as long as the local machine takes care of the
# routing. But if you want to use MS-Windows networking, you should
# use IP addresses out of the LAN address space and use the proxyarp
# option in the pppd options file, or run bcrelay.
#
# You can specify single IP addresses seperated by commas or you can
# specify ranges, or both. For example:
#
# 192.168.0.234,192.168.0.245-249,192.168.0.254
#
# IMPORTANT RESTRICTIONS:
#
# 1. No spaces are permitted between commas or within addresses.
#
# 2. If you give more IP addresses than MAX_CONNECTIONS, it will
# start at the beginning of the list and go until it gets
# MAX_CONNECTIONS IPs. Others will be ignored.
#
# 3. No shortcuts in ranges! ie. 234-8 does not mean 234 to 238,
# you must type 234-238 if you mean this.
#
# 4. If you give a single localIP, that's ok - all local IPs will
# be set to the given one. You MUST still give at least one remote
# IP for each simultaneous client.
#
# (Recommended)
#localip 192.168.0.1
#remoteip 192.168.0.234-238,192.168.0.245
# or
#localip 192.168.0.234-238,192.168.0.245
#remoteip 192.168.1.234-238,192.168.1.245
localip 192.168.253.1
remoteip 192.168.253.2-3
chap-secrets
Code:
# PPP CHAP secrets file.
# See pppd(1) for file format.
# Secrets for authentication using CHAP
# client server secret IP addresses
#username pptpd password *
#test * "test" *
mmx pptpd "password" 192.168.253.2
# For ppp patched with smbauth you use
# * pptpd &/etc/samba/smbpasswd *
options.pptpd
Code:
###############################################################################
# $Id: options.pptpd,v 1.1 2005/06/10 07:18:16 jeanfabrice Exp $
#
# Sample Poptop PPP options file /etc/ppp/options.pptpd
# Options used by PPP when a connection arrives from a client.
# This file is pointed to by /etc/pptpd.conf option keyword.
# Changes are effective on the next connection. See "man pppd".
#
# You are expected to change this file to suit your system. As
# packaged, it requires PPP 2.4.2 and the kernel MPPE module.
###############################################################################
# Authentication
# Name of the local system for authentication purposes
# (must match the second field in /etc/ppp/chap-secrets entries)
name pptpd
# Strip the domain prefix from the username before authentication.
# (applies if you use pppd with chapms-strip-domain patch)
#chapms-strip-domain
# Encryption
# (There have been multiple versions of PPP with encryption support,
# choose with of the following sections you will use.)
# BSD licensed ppp-2.4.2 upstream with MPPE only, kernel module ppp_mppe.o
# {{{
refuse-pap
refuse-chap
refuse-mschap
# Require the peer to authenticate itself using MS-CHAPv2 [Microsoft
# Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol, Version 2] authentication.
require-mschap-v2
# Require MPPE 128-bit encryption
# (note that MPPE requires the use of MSCHAP-V2 during authentication)
require-mppe-128
# }}}
# OpenSSL licensed ppp-2.4.1 fork with MPPE only, kernel module mppe.o
# {{{
#-chap
#-chapms
# Require the peer to authenticate itself using MS-CHAPv2 [Microsoft
# Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol, Version 2] authentication.
#+chapms-v2
# Require MPPE encryption
# (note that MPPE requires the use of MSCHAP-V2 during authentication)
#mppe-40 # enable either 40-bit or 128-bit, not both
#mppe-128
#mppe-stateless
# }}}
# Network and Routing
# If pppd is acting as a server for Microsoft Windows clients, this
# option allows pppd to supply one or two DNS (Domain Name Server)
# addresses to the clients. The first instance of this option
# specifies the primary DNS address; the second instance (if given)
# specifies the secondary DNS address.
#ms-dns 10.0.0.1
#ms-dns 10.0.0.2
# If pppd is acting as a server for Microsoft Windows or "Samba"
# clients, this option allows pppd to supply one or two WINS (Windows
# Internet Name Services) server addresses to the clients. The first
# instance of this option specifies the primary WINS address; the
# second instance (if given) specifies the secondary WINS address.
#ms-wins 10.0.0.3
#ms-wins 10.0.0.4
# Add an entry to this system's ARP [Address Resolution Protocol]
# table with the IP address of the peer and the Ethernet address of this
# system. This will have the effect of making the peer appear to other
# systems to be on the local ethernet.
# (you do not need this if your PPTP server is responsible for routing
# packets to the clients -- James Cameron)
#proxyarp
mtu 1464
mru 1464
# Logging
# Enable connection debugging facilities.
# (see your syslog configuration for where pppd sends to)
#debug
# Print out all the option values which have been set.
# (often requested by mailing list to verify options)
#dump
# Miscellaneous
# Create a UUCP-style lock file for the pseudo-tty to ensure exclusive
# access.
lock
# Disable BSD-Compress compression
nobsdcomp
#noauth
Here the demonstration that it works for me:
Code:
Sep 27 21:40:55 pptpd[208]: CTRL: Client 192.168.1.1 control connection started
Sep 27 21:40:55 pptpd[208]: CTRL: Starting call (launching pppd, opening GRE)

Sep 27 21:41:21 pppd[209]: Exit.
At the clientside you must disable softwarecompression I had big problems with enable
softwarecompression.
