I'm trying to setup my PPTP to allow more than 255 client connections.

I have added the connections param in pptpd.conf to allow the connections but I do not know how to set the remoteip specification to allow more than 255 addresses.

Currently I have:

remoteip 192.168.0.2-255

This allows 254 client connections but I really want to set this so I can have up to 500 or more. Something like:

remoteip 192.168.0-10.2-255

But this is not valid, I get the error

 MGR: Bad IP address (192.168.0-10.2-255) in config file!

Can anyone suggest how this should be done in the config file?

Thanks

NOTE:

I've had a good look through the man page for the config file and cannot see any examples of how this would be done

Try:

remoteip 192.168.0.2-254,192.168.1.2-254

The annotation in the pptpd.conf file is weird.
