From b3f9b92a6ec1a9a5e4b4b36e484f2f62cc73277c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matt Domsch Date: Tue, 8 Nov 2005 09:40:47 -0800 Subject: [PPP]: add PPP MPPE encryption module From: Matt Domsch The patch below implements the Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption method as a PPP compressor/decompressor. This is necessary for Linux clients and servers to interoperate with Microsoft Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) servers (either Microsoft PPTP servers or the poptop project) which use MPPE to encrypt data when creating a VPN. This patch differs from the kernel_ppp_mppe DKMS pacakge at pptpclient.sourceforge.net by utilizing the kernel crypto routines rather than providing its own SHA1 and arcfour implementations. Minor changes to ppp_generic.c try to prevent a link from disabling compression (in our case, the encryption) after it has started using compression (encryption). Feedback to please.
