the same LAN.

Quickstart for the PPTP client.
Set up your /etc/ppp/ppp.conf based on the example in this directory.
Make these substitutions:
SERVER IP address of the PPTP server
LABEL PPP label to use (must be the same on the command
line and in the ppp.conf file)
USER Your account name on the server
PASSWORD Your password on the server
Change the "add" commands in ppp.conf to set up the routing
appropriately.
Note: your PPP program must be new enough to support MS-CHAP
authentication.
You must run the program as root. Use a command like this:
pptp SERVER LABEL
Kill it with ^C when you're done.
If you want to access the remote system from other hosts on your LAN,
be sure to turn on IP forwarding on the PPTP client machine.
