mpd pptp server questions

[Yann Nottara]

Hi !

I'm using MPD 3.10 on a FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE #0: Sat Apr 13 19:16:07 CEST 2002 machine. I've setup a PPTP server allowing remote access to the local network for the Win2k integrated PPTP client.

Works OK so far but I got some messages in my logs that I don't understand. I haven't found any answer nor in the manual nor Google so I'm posting here.

Dec 17 13:59:02 bull mpd: 192.168.0.10 -> 192.168.0.202
Dec 17 13:59:02 bull mpd: [pptp2] IFACE: Up event
Dec 17 13:59:02 bull mpd: [pptp2] exec: /sbin/ifconfig ng0 192.168.0.10 192.168.0.202 netmask 0xffffffff -link0
Dec 17 13:59:02 bull mpd: [pptp2] exec: /usr/sbin/arp -s 192.168.0.202 0:b0:d0:e1:48:74 pub
Dec 17 13:59:02 bull mpd: [pptp2] exec: /sbin/route add 192.168.0.0 192.168.0.202 -netmask 0xffffff00
Dec 17 13:59:02 bull mpd: [pptp2] exec: command returned 256
Dec 17 13:59:02 bull mpd: [pptp2] IFACE: Up event
Dec 17 13:59:02 bull mpd: [pptp2] rec'd unexpected protocol IP on link -1

As I wrote before, my problem is only this "verbosity", the server itself is doing fine.

So, my questions regarding the logs are :

1) What does "exec: command returned 256" means ?

2) What "does rec'd unexpected protocol IP on link -1" means ?


BTW, my setup only allows 1 client now but I'd like to allow up to about 10-15 machines more.

Any idea of the burden this would put on a PIII 866 - 512 MB - U160 SCSI server already providing some other basic net services ? Do you think it's feasible ?


Thanks in advance for any help & advice.
