Nothing unusual. I presume Box B is working fine?

This shows pppd is not receiving any data from the peer. Without data, pppd will not succeed. Diagnose this further by verifying the arrival of GRE packets, protocol 47, on the network interface that the TCP port 1723 connection should have established on. If no packets arrive, then the problem is outside your host. > I see it is a different magic number. Could that have anything to do > with it? No. The magic numbers are random. > After > a short time it gets a SIGUSR: > pptpconfig: pppd process terminated by signal 16 (failed) > pptpconfig: SIGUSR1 Should not be relevant. pptpconfig is deprecated, and I'm the author. It is a PHP-GTK wrapper around pppd. pptpconfig has several problems that I'm not fixing, but I don't recall if any of them might cause this symptom. I suggest you try to exclude pptpconfig from your test. > Any idea what is happening? I did recently install cisco vpn client > on Box A, but pptp was working after to that. I don't know what the effect of that software is. Suggest you also reveal version of pppd and version of pptp.
