While pppd is involved in a PPTP VPN, it isn't really inside the scope of PPP and this mailing list. You should contact the poptop-server@lists.sourceforge.net mailing list for the pptpd project. See http://poptop.org/ and the archives on http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=3Dpoptop-server You should contact the pptpclient-devel@lists.sourcerfoge.net mailing list for the pptp client project.

Don't know. Contact your router provider. Try OpenVPN if you haven't already. It has a few features that increase the security of the VPN, features that PPTP can never have without breaking backward compatibility. --=20 James Cameron http://quozl.netrek.org/ HP Open Source, Volunteer http://opensource.hp.com/ PPTP Client Project, Release Engineer http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/ --0eh6TmSyL6TZE2Uz Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFEO0PPIiWKUhK+Mj4RAtwOAJ9VO6wKASUDUotYsJjkbvQvZfyG8ACaAigK rws/FR+CaVs+1NVOEwekSJg= =CYv+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --0eh6TmSyL6TZE2Uz--
