connection freezing, lots of 'discarding bogus packet'

Hi,

I have a poptop server running on CentOS5 64bit. 

It generally works fine, except sometimes the connection 'freezes' and not 
possible to ping from client to server.  So it works for a number of minutes, 
and then freezes.

In the client log are thousands of these lines (client is on Fedora 11):
 Mar 31 09:49:24 maximus pptp[4554]: nm-pptp-service-4549 
warn[decaps_gre:pptp_gre.c:426]: discarding bogus packet 227307 (expecting

There is nothing out of the ordinary in the server logs (even with debug logs). 

The server options.pptp file:


name pptpd
-chap
-pap
-mschap
+mschap-v2
require-mppe
ms-dns 91.143.112.64
ms-dns 91.143.114.64
proxyarp
lock
nobsdcomp 
novj
novjccomp
nologfd
plugin radius.so
plugin radattr.so
debug
mtu 1396


Any ideas what can be happening?

Regards,
Tobias
