Stefaan,

Try the catchall version of that command:

netsh ras set tracing * enable

Then run your test again.  Once complete - and assuming the problem was 
experienced, disable tracing:

netsh ras set tracing * disable

Take a look at the log files in %windir%\tracing.

You may need to engage the MS RRAS team to further determine any underlying 
cause of your problem.  Based on current posts to 
microsoft.public.windows.vista.networking_sharing, they seem a pretty active 
bunch.

Specifically, though, I believe the component you're looking for is just ppp.

netsh ras set tracing ppp enable/disable

After tracing ppp, you should see a ppp.log file in the above mentioned 
directory.

Cordially yours,

Subject: [isapros] PPTP tracing

Hi, 

Is there any way to trace the PPTP negotiation itself, particular the Call
ID negotiation, without using a Network Monitor on Windows XP, 2003 and
Vista? 
I've looked at the "netsh ras set tracing Component enabled" command, but
it's unclear which component should be enabled or if it is possible at all. 

Thanks, 
Stefaan
