hi,
there was a small change in kernel 2.4.4, which _might_ cause pptp to
exhibit strange behaviour. if anyone is using pptp with kernel 2.4,
i'd appreaciate a [success|bug] report.
fyi, the change is that after a fork(), the child procces is allowed to
run first, and not the parent. apparently, this causes weird behaviour in
some applications. it should not affect pptp, but one never knows...
