pppd: Couldn't load plugin rp-pppoe.so

I am trying to use pptpclient to connect to Microsoft PPTP VPN server. When I run "pppd call TUNNELNAME", it throws the above error.

Attempting to simply run pppoe-start throws the following error in tail -f /var/log/messages:

/usr/lib/pppd/2.4.5/rp-pppoe.so: Cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I tried the same on another box that is running an older version of Slitaz (cooking, but not upgraded in awhile) and it seems to work fine there.

The package rp-pppoe is installed. Anyone know what's going on here? Thanks.

/usr/lib/pppd/2.4.5/rp-pppoe.so plugin should be cooked into the ppp.tazpkg

I take it that means there's a problem with the package?

This post belongs in the Packages sub-forum.

Pankso or one of the developers will have to fix the error so the plugin is compiled.

The ppp-2.4.5.tazpkg will be re-cooked and the plugin will be included.

It would be great if an error such as this would place a tazpkg into the broken packages list.

Thanks for the response. Not sure if I can move this post. Also, how do I place the tazpkg into the broken packages list? Is that something I can do, or is that for the developers? Thanks again.
