I am having troubles getting usermode ppp to work.  I am using this machine as 
a dialup server (not connected to the internet, but for field service people 
to connect.  I have created ppplogin which calls ppp -direct, and I get ppp 
packets, but when I try to negotiate with the server from the dialup side, I 
get no-known protocol, or something to that nature.  I do not wish to use PAP 
or CHAP authentication, just simple PPP connects using trumpet winsock and/or 
Windows95 dialer to connect.

Any assistance on this would be muchly appreciated.
