[pptp-server] PPTP scalability?

[George Vieira]

Am I wrong in saying that there is nothing stppoing the chance of running 2
copies of pptpd with each listening on a different IP and seperate
pptpd.conf's?

should work write? you'll then only reach the next limit which is it pty's
at 256 or something.....

thanks,

I assume you are refering to the PoPToP implimentation of PPTP for linux.
If so, I seem to recall that there is a limit in the code currently for 100
connections.  However, indications are that it is simply a limit in how
connections are tracked.  That is to say that if the tracking/allocation
code were adjusted to not have a hardcoded 100 limitation in the algorithm
that the rest of the PoPToP implimentation would still work.
