Hi,
 
This may be a bit off-topic but I thought someone on the list may have some idea on this.
 
I've recently purchased an HP ipaq 5500 which comes with Pocket PC 2003 which has a VPN client built in. I'm trying to connect it to the VPN server but can't find the method of authentication it uses. All other windows clients can connect to the poptop VPN with no problem. HP Doesn't know & MS doesn't know where to direct my call to, I'm waiting for someone to call me back still.
 
Server:
 enable MSCHAPv2 pap
 set mppe 128 stateless
IPaq Client:
 Slip (Off by default)
 Software compression (tried with on & off)
 IP Header compression (tried with on & off)
 
I guess my question is, what authentication method does the pocket pc 2003 use, does it support GRE? It connects but doesn't send any data.
