Package: pptpd
Version: 1.2.1-4
Severity: normal

pptpd cannot handle multiple connections from same host with same 
login/password. 
i test it with pptp-linux pachage as client, then second connection made pptpd 
start
new pppd process, it authenticate user and after thet i see on server a pppd 
process
in zombie state, in logs of pppd i se what pppd use same interface number what 
used 
by previous connection from this host.

full log with 2 connection:
