FREESCO 0.3.x

ID #1218

Has freesco got a pptp client?

Yes, there's a pptp client included, but its not a very recent version.

[root@Freesco] pptp
pptp-linux version 1.0.2
Usage:
pptp hostname [pppd options]

To use the client to setup a VPN connection you probably also need the MPPE kernel module and a newer version of the pppd binary. The MPPE module and a newer version of pppd are part of the 3rd party add-on package for PopTop which is a VPN server for FREESCO.

http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/ has a lot of info about howto set things up, but is written for a lot newer linux distro's then FREESCO so be prepared for a lot of trial and error!

http://tiki-lounge.com/~ben/software/pptp.html also has a howto.
