Jeremy,

I just built a pptp machine, http://home.swbell.net/berzerke/howto.html
helped a lot. Unfortunately, I can't use ipsec because of the clients I have
to support, but http://jixen.tripod.com/ for config, and
www.google.com/linux for compile answered all my questions on ipsec.

If your in a hurry, try www.ipcop.com, but the gui won't work for road
warrior style ipsec.

Hey folks,
   It's been 3 years or more since I've posted anything to NTLUG....  I
thought I'd see what you all could tell me about the current state of pptp
support in late kernels or give me guidance on patching older source.

I patched and build some kernels to handle pptp about 2.5 years ago for a
client, but have since misplaced my notes on how I finally got it working...
I've gone back and reread the VPN masq howto, and various other docs and
personal pages by various folks. I've tried patching 2.2.5, 2.2.14, 2.4.16(I
think)  ...I've tried RPMs from RedHat and tarballs from kernel.org.  and
none of them have compiled without error...  I thought I'd be able to trace
my steps from 2.5 years ago, but I'm only frustrating myself.

I'm running RedHat 7.1 now, but I don't really care if I use older source to
get this job done.

 If anyone can give me a functional set of instructions to patch any source
>= 2.2.* to handle pptp (and IPsec too) I would be incredibly greatful!

This  would be ideal:

"Jeremy,

  -get  source "blah" here. blah.foo.com
  -get  patch "blah" here. foo.blah.com

 This is what I used and it works every time."


thanks in advance
  -Jeremy Brooks
