[pptp-server] PPTP VPN ADSL

[Matthew C. Grab]

Hi, I am new to this list.  I have read over the archives, and I would like
your input.

I have an ADSL connection to the internet.  It currently only works with
Windows.  It works by using MS VPN and PPTP, and an ethernet card.

The vpn connection is only to isolate my PC from the other users ADSL users.
They use an NT server to provide VPN authentication, and I want to use a
linux client to connect.

I have downloaded linux PPP version 2.3.8 (plus 2.3.9 & 10).  But I don't
know where to start using an ethernet card to connect.  Can anyone give me
any input on how to do this?  Or where to look?  I have read the PPP how-to,
and found nothing.  I can't find any info about the 1.0.2 VPN PPTP linux
client?

If I can't set it up to work in linux, it does work fine in Windows 95, but
I have an application that works better (from an end user perspective) under
linux.  Besides, linux can do anything better than windows 95, right? ( *
gasp *)

Thanks,
Matt Grab
