[pptp-server] How do I specify the client to use a particular DNS server and al so a DNS suffix?

[ctooley at amoa.org]

Or it can be specified in a device specific options file (ie. options.pptd or
options.stty0 etc) so that one version of ppp can control multiple types of
traffic.  I have one machine that accepts dialins and is also a pptp server.
Global options go in "options", PPTP options go in options.pptp and dialin
options go in options.stty0.

Yep.  Personally, as I only use pptp on my machine, I put the configurations
in "/etc/ppp/options" so it effects all ppp style connections.  However, I
believe this can also be put in the pptpd.conf file (I could be wrong on
this).
