   I want to set up a VPN server on a freebsd machine so Windows clients can   
   use   
   it.   
      
   I am using FreeBSD 6.1 and mpd 3.18 from the ports collection.   
      
   My basic problem is that mpd does not do anything and doesn't complain about   
   anything, so I'm not making much progress.   
      
   I run mpd with "mpd -k -s higvpn"   
      
   Here are various facts and/or symptoms   
      
   1) all the show commands show there isn't anything (bundles, links, etc.   
   etc.)   
   2) netstat says nobody's listening on 1723   
   3) Windows VPN's produce error 678 ("There was no answer") which seems   
   consonant with (2)   
   4) I can't find any trace info anywhere   
   5) there is no firewall issue because the freebsd vpn server and Windows   
   machine are both on my own little network (192.168.0) and neither machine   
   has   
   one for the time being   
      
      
   In an effort to embarrass myself here is my mpd.conf file   
      
   default:   
   load pptp1   
   load pptp2   
      
   pptp1:   
   new -i ng0 pptp1 pptp1   
   load common   
      
   pptp2:   
   new -i ng1 pptp2 pptp2   
   load common   
      
   common:   
   set iface disable on-demand   
   set iface enable proxy-arp   
   set iface idle 0   
   set iface enable tcpmssfix   
   set bundle enable multilink   
   set link enable acfcomp protocomp   
   set link no pap chap   
   set link enable chap   
   set link keep-alive 10 60   
   set ipcp yes vjcomp   
   set ipcp ranges 82.238.41.134/32 192.168.0.201/24   
   set ipcp dns 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220   
   #set ipcp nbns 172.20.1.1 172.20.1.8   
   #set bundle enable compression   
   #set ccp yes mppc   
   #set ccp yes mpp-e40   
   #set ccp yes mpp-e128   
   #set ccp yes mpp-stateless   
      
      
      
   TIA
