VPN Problems
« on: November 25, 2007, 04:33:21 PM »
I have read other threads regarding this but have not seen a full solution.

My problem is that I am trying to connect to my remote network via an XP client and I can only connect once with any given I.P address, so basically everytime I want to connect my VPN I have to refresh the IP from my ISP.  THis is fine but for another application I have a static IP !  My log file looks like this:

Nov 25 15:20:04 gc1 pptpd[30286]: CTRL: Client xx.xxx.152.102 control connection finished
Nov 25 15:20:16 gc1 pptpd[30320]: CTRL: Client xx.xxx.152.102 control connection started
Nov 25 15:20:16 gc1 pptpd[30320]: CTRL: Starting call (launching pppd, opening GRE)

Nov 25 15:20:32 gc1 pppd[30321]: Connection terminated.
Nov 25 15:20:32 gc1 kernel: divert: no divert_blk to free, ppp0 not ethernet
Nov 25 15:20:32 gc1 pppd[30321]: Exit.

Any suggestions ??   :sad:

I'm not an expert about this but I did have same kind of problem. It was caused by my firewall (fsecure) at my workstation.
Disabling momentarily firewall I manage to establish a connection.
