| Here is the summary of changes into libalias(3) and natd(8) since
| 4.0-RELEASE:
|
| - Load Sharing using IP Network Address Translation (RFC 2391, LSNAT)
| - New options: -redirect_proto, -target_addr and -punch_fw
| - Removed -pptpalias since this is now done transparently by libalias(3)
|
| Note that you DO NOT need -redirect_proto for PPTP through NAT to work,
| this is now done transparently in libalias(3) and much better:

Do you need it for passing non-PPTP, ie router-router, GRE traffic?  Or any
of the "other" IP protocols?

| - Multiple PPTP clients behind NAT to the same or different servers.
|
| - Single PPTP server behind NAT -- you just need to redirect TCP
|   port 1723 to a local machine.  Multiple servers behind NAT is
|   possible but would require a simple API change.
|
| Please see manual page for details.

Which one?  Neither natd(8) or libalias(3) mentions PPTP other than to give
the author(s) credit for writing support for it.
