[pptp-server] Connecting from varying, dynamic IP's

[George Vieira]

Note sure about AOL as I heard they do funny things with their connections
(maybe rumors)...

Setup 128 (MPPE) encryption if possible.
Setup a SMB (Master Browser) if he needs to see other machines but mapping
them via IP is fine.
Setup (for the above) proxyarp so he's actually part of the same network
with a network IP...

Pretty standard stuff, no specials..

Maybe just assign him an IP and install something like pcAnywhere if
something goes wrong and you can fix his laptop over the link ("BOSS:I can't
see my P: drive...","TECHO:Let me connect and fix it for you").

Anyone have any strategy for setting up the pptpd.conf file for
permitting connections for my boss's laptop as he travels around the
country, getting various dynamic IP's from in-room hotel broadband
connections as well as from dial-up connections to his ISP, or even
AOL???

TIA,
