After the "mdp: PPTP connection from ..." stuff at the start a session,
I get:

Mar 22 10:27:58 mpd: [pt0] LCP: SendConfigReq #218 
Mar 22 10:27:58 mpd: ACFCOMP 
Mar 22 10:27:58 mpd: PROTOCOMP

...

Every couple seconds, I see the SendConfigReq block repeated until it
gives up:

Mar 22 10:32:00 mpd: pptp0-0: call cleared by peer 
Mar 22 10:32:00 mpd: pptp0-0: killing channel 
Mar 22 10:32:00 mpd: [pt0] PPTP call terminated
...

The only part that jumps out to me is the "ignoring SetLinkInfo" part
but I'm not sure what the means.

I don't see any rejection messages so I'm left assuming that the ACK
response from m0n0 isn't getting back to the client for some reason.
Does this make sense?  I'm thinking that I need to get onsite and start
sniffing.  If anybody has something else I might try, I'm eater to hear
about it.

PS: Could I have an MTU issue with the PPPOE links and the intermediate
NAT router at the office site?
