a. pptp is a generic way to tunnel ppp over IP. You can plug in encryption. Why tunnel it on top of ssh? b. tunneling on top of TCP is generally a bad idea c. pptp has only the control connection on tcp port 1723.

Still, there are better ways to make a VPN that will actually perform resonably. Is the encryption of the data actually a requirement here? -- Tzafrir Cohen | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il | | a Mutt's [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | best ICQ# 16849755 | | friend ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
