PPTP VPN not working with 3.215/3.216

After upgrading to v3.215 PPTP VPN connections are no longer working. The Windows NT4 client sits at the verifying username/password stage for a while and then responds with "error 721: remote ppp peer is not responding".

I upgraded to v3.216 and rebooted to see if that would solve th prolem but the problem remains. Anyone else having this problems - anyone have a permanent solution ?

Thanks,

John

Looks like it was a problem with aua.bin - while the problems was occuring a ps showed the following:-

gate:/var/log # ps -deaf | grep aua
root 240 1 0 11:21 ? 00:00:00 ./aua.bin /etc/wfe/conf/aua_main
_config.ini
root 25549 240 0 12:12 ? 00:00:00 [aua.bin ]

So I killed the aua process and started it again:-

cd /etc/rc.d; sh aua start

After that the PPTP client can log in again.

There is still a defunct aua.bin process - is this normal ?
