Do you have any plans on integrating an > MS-LIKE VPN suite into user ppp? The version of ppp that shipped with 3.1 may not have had the ``alias pptp'' command. You can get the latest version of ppp from http://www.Awfulhak.org/ppp.html if you're interested - the ``alias'' command has been superceded by the ``nat'' command (although ``alias'' is still supported). WRT an MS-LIKE VPN, the design of PPTP seems quite horrible to me. I doubt it'll ever make it into user-ppp. At the moment, skip or PPPoSSH is your best option with user-ppp. I have plans to look at IPSEC. > On Mon, 23 Aug 1999, Brian Somers wrote: > > > > Has anyone succesfully routed GRE throught ipfw or natd? > > > Here's my siduation; at home I have my dosbox behind freebsd3.1 via 10mbit > > > utp.
