it’s actually quite easy to setup a pptp vpn server for windows/*nix client on a ubuntu serverÂ

first off all we install pptpd ( PoPToP Point to Point Tunneling Server)

[code]install pptpd[/code]

 after that we edit /etc/pptpd.conf

[code]pptpd.conf[/code]

then we edit /etc/ppp/options

[code]options[/code]

and then we edit /etc/ppp/pptpd-options

[code]pptpd-options[/code]

and as last we edit the user file /etc/ppp/chap-secrets

[code]chap-secrets[/code]

and finaly we restart the pptpd using the command:

[code]restart pptpd[/code]

so you see … it’s not that hard to install a microsoft vpn tunnel server on a ubuntu server Â
