vpn pptp needs kernel support

[massemanet]

I'm trying to set up a vpn (against anonine.com) over pptp (microsoft's vpn solution). There is a linux pptp-client in lenny (pptp-linux), but it needs needs kernel support for mppe (Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption). See e.g.
http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/howto ... ppe_kernel

Alas, I can not find this (or indeed any) kernel module in the bubba repos. I've found evidence in this forum for the existence of a bubba-specific linux-modules package, but it seems to be gone to the bitbucket in the sky.

any input welcome!

I could:

Code: Select all

modprobe ppp-compress-18 

the module loaded and I could get PPTP up and running.
