Thanks to all who responded. I still have one question: when they say
"RAS" as a Microsoft proprietary protocol, are they talking about the
MS-CHAP extensions to PPP? Doesn't the latest version of userland PPP
support this? Should we mark this as MSP/Std?
And what about the VPN stuff? Don't we do some of this, with ports?
