They'd have to be faking the PPTP headers but then falling down on the encryption portion. Why bother? It's not even disruptive, let alone a serious threat, and there are obviously much better things in the world to attack. Even sending out random TCP RST packets to snipe away connections is a worse thing to do, and it's far simpler. My money would be split on two bets: a bug in MPPE or a high underlying packet loss/reordering rate. -- James Carlson 42.703N 71.076W <carlsonj@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ppp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
