Quickstart for the PPTP client.
|
|
|
|
Set up your /etc/ppp/ppp.conf based on the example in this directory.
|
|
Make these substitutions:
|
|
|
|
SERVER IP address of the PPTP server
|
|
|
|
LABEL PPP label to use (must be the same on the command
|
|
line and in the ppp.conf file)
|
|
|
|
USER Your account name on the server
|
|
|
|
PASSWORD Your password on the server
|
|
|
|
Change the "add" commands in ppp.conf to set up the routing
|
|
appropriately.
|
|
|
|
Note: your PPP program must be new enough to support MS-CHAP
|
|
authentication.
|
|
|
|
You must run the program as root. Use a command like this:
|
|
|
|
pptp SERVER LABEL
|
|
|
|
Kill it with ^C when you're done.
|
|
|
|
If you want to access the remote system from other hosts on your LAN,
|
|
be sure to turn on IP forwarding on the PPTP client machine.

Starting as a service:
|
|
|
|
# Configure /etc/ppp/ppp.conf as described above
|
|
$ sysrc pptp_enable=YES
|
|
$ sysrc pptp_flags="SERVER [LABEL]"
|
|
$ service pptp start
|
|
|
|
NB: LABEL can be omitted if you used "default" for LABEL in ppp.conf(5).
