[pptp-server] Some Questions

[Blake Watters]

I am in the process of setting up a VPN on my Linux box to serve a zoo of Windows 9x/NT/2000 clients and plan to be using pptp as the backbone of the setup. I am however a bit frustrated as I patched ppp to support the encryption needed by Microsoft OS's and went merrilly on my way to compile the kernel modules when I was rudely interupted by errors concerning the nonexistence of RC4 algorithms in the kernel codebase. So off I went to kerneli.org to grab the patches and found none in existence for 2.2.14. So the questions I put before you are as follows:

Is it a necessity to make use of the encryption? (I mean easily - distributing registry hacks is not an option)
And can anyone point me to a link where I can obtain the needed patches?
