I am using Ubuntu Server 11.10 64 bit
I am trying to get PPTPD VPN working on it
I have tried multiply installation guides but each one I still get the same problem
When a client (Me on my laptop) connects, the network on the server freezes
When I try to ping say 8.8.8.8(The Google public DNS server) it will run though multiple pings before there is no response back. The client is not on the Internet nor doing anything. It is just connected to the VPN server.
I thought that maybe this was the Google server how ever this is not the case. I started the ping and connected to the VPN and it reached 44 pings. I then tried it with out the client connected and it went beyond 44 pings. So I know that PPTPD is to blame for this.
I reinstalled the PPTPD server and the only configartion change were to the chap-secrets to allow a log in and the problem still happens.
I have no idea what is going on.
Any help will be much appreciated.
