Hello, I'm running OpenBSD 3.0 and am trying to get pptpd 1.0.2 running
but have read that I have to disable GRE. I have downloaded the latest
source-tree and have looked in the /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC
file to comment out:

'option pseudo-device GRE'

but that line isn't in my GENERIC file. Is there another way to disable
GRE. I've tried the:

sysctl -w net.inet.gre.allow=0

command but have read that it doesn't always work - since I'm getting
the same error I assume it didn't work. This is the output from trying
to connect from a Windows 2000 client

pppd 2.3.5 started by bozack, uid 0
Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/ttyp2
LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
Connection terminated.
GRE: read(fd=4,buffer=654c,len=8196) from PTY failed: status = 0 error =
No error
CTRL: PTY read or GRE write failed (pty,gre)=(4,5)

Any help is greatly appreciated!
