PPTP

[alexandrglukhov]

Hello, I need your help in next problem:

I have an i.mx28 and a Linux on it. I'm using buildroot.

I want to connect to server, using pptp-linux client.

In buildroot I choose the pptp-linux client and pppd and do make. Then on i.mx28 I try to connect to server

pptp 92.x.x.x

Couldn't open the /dev/ppp device: No such device or address

/usr/sbin/pppd: Please load the ppp_generic kernel module.

ls -al /dev/ppp

crwxrwxrwx    1 root     root      108,   0 Nov 26  2014 /dev/ppp

I can't understand what should I do with it. Can you help me?

As pptp client requires PPP daemon you need to add ppp component as well with the BSP.
Also you can refer instructions for installing PPTP client Yury suggested:

I already select pppd in buildroot. But I haven't got directories such as ets/ppp/peers or scripts like pon or poff. I tried to add them manually, but the error is the same:

Couldn't open the /dev/ppp device: No such device or address

/usr/sbin/pppd: Please load the ppp_generic kernel module.

Please check kernel configuration :
