If you like you can symlink /usr/src/linux to /usr/src/linux-2.4.25/ -- this is useful because some things that require kernel source to build look here for it. |

[PPP] related options should be enabled as modules, not built into the kernel, or it will fail for some reason. Build the kernel and modules as usual, install it and reboot. Dont forget to run [LILO] or whatever. Fixing up a broken kernel build is beyond the scope of this document. For now I'll assume that all has been sucessfull and you are running your new kernel. |

Next load the kernel support with <tt>modprobe ppp_mppe</tt>. |

To make it easier put these into <tt>/etc/modules</tt> or add these lines to <tt>/etc/modules.conf</tt> |

Now configure your [PPTP] connections, or whatever you needed this support for. |
