Hi Barry.
I've played quite a bit with this, and never succeeded getting tem talking
to any PPTP server. I have looked at it protocol wise, and it appears to
request a type of authentication that nothing recognises.
I've switched over to using the Movian IPSec client to a Cisco router.

Subject: [nznog] VPN with paq 5500 & pocket pc 2003
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.
