pptp is giving me this

upgrading to 1.7.1 fixes it

It seems silly not to report it as I spent several hours yesterday getting pptpconfig to work. I suspect this is caused by an upgraded libc

If you've left the old pptp in the next release I'll make sure I bump this

For an experimented user is straitforward to get and compile software from source package, sometimes in smaller softwares with few dependencies it works for me too, but I had to admit I prefer to get it in working precompiled binaries, so extending pupy to be slackware binary compatible is wonderful.Even more easy for an newbie is workink with .sfs (puppy) and .mo (SLAX) modules!
I've tried a game and lazarus with free pascal .mo files from SLAX. renamed them .sfs and used the boot manager and they worked in 2.20. They also worked in 2.16. I plan on trying more and seeing if there are any that work only in 2.20. Small games can just be mounted and the contents copied into puppy to get around the 3 limit. Or made into .pet files.

Tried 2.20 and did an experimental upgrade from 2.17.1.
Everything works fine, even my internet connection (use tkpppoe on a dsl-modem).
Did all my adjustments and created a new ISO with Dougal. Burned it to CD with Grafburn. But when I booted from that remastered CD and tried to restart, the SAVE to CD function did not work. It starts fine, but does not write to CD, and yes, it is a multisession CD.
Okay maybe I am new to this, but that function works fine in 2.17.1.
Maybe there is a glitch here?
