Heck, I'm just asking for simple stuff like Microsoft supporting the rest
of the PPP protocol, and displayed the Reply-Message sent by the network
to the computer's user instead of thowing it away. That way you could
tell the user why the network is rejecting the access, instead of the
generic Microsoft error message.
Instead of using the features built into the protocol, because Windows
doesn't support the PPP messages, everyone else has to come up with other
ways to inform users what's wrong.
