Thats what I do... I run a masq'd NT based PPTP server behind my linux based
firewall. I hate to admit it (I'd prefer a linux solution) but until PoPToP
(really pppd) can authenticate against an NT PDC, it makes no sense to
maintain and synchronize separate user/password data in chap-secrets. That
would be an administration nightmare.
