Hi,

I have just setup my linode (CentOS 5), updated it all and installed PPTPD on it.

However when I start the service (service pptpd start) it use 100% of the CPU...?

Here is the log file:

If you have any ideas as to why, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

mkdir /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/
depmod -a

The above will shut modprobe up, then you might be able to see whats causing the error better, although this looks suspect:

Hi,

I have managed to fix it, well more like a work around. Im now using FC8.... all seems to be working.
