It can establish a +PPP connection with an NT server, tunneled through a PPTP link over +the Internet. In effect, it makes the client machine behave as if +it were on the same LAN as the server. + +I have fixed one serious bug in the program, and have patched it to +use FreeBSD's userland "ppp" package rather than "pppd" which it +was originally designed to use. I found that "ppp" supplied more +versatility and was easier to set up. + +There is no manpage for this package, but you will find some +quickstart instructions and example configuration files in +"${PREFIX}/share/examples/pptpclient". + +WWW: http://www.pdos.lcs.mit.edu/~cananian/Projects/PPTP/ + +John Polstra <jdp@freebsd.org> |
