[Openswan Users] Issues with L2TPNS and Openswan on Fedora Core 4

[Norman Rasmussen]

I'm using the debian l2tp daemon (based off http://www.marko.net/l2tp
and http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/l2tpd apparently from the man
page)

My client in WinXP SP2, and it happily connects via the l2tp daemon to
ppp and authenticates.   Is there any particular reason why you are
using l2tpns?

What's you client? and have you tried using ppp authentication instead
of l2tp authentication?
