pptpd is based on an internet draft (RFC) and as such can't really be
modified without breaking compatibility. If you just want to make a linux ->
linux vpn, there are tons of ways to do it, and pptp probably isnt the best
one.pptp's strength is that it supports the existing windows clients out
there.
