Hello All,
I'd like to firstly state that this is the first time dealing with FreeBSD and dont know a great deal about it.
My current setup is that I have a modem connected to my ADSL. The ADSL requires a PPPoA connection. So unfortunately I cannot connect directly to FreeBSD and do a simple PPPoE connection. What I have is the modem to bridge PPPoA to PPTP.
Now this bridge is setup and running nicely and has been tested from a windows machine.
I dont want a windows machine to be connected but want a FreeBSD machine.
Ive searched and searched and cannot find anywhere a decent from start howto on how to make a PPTP connection to my modem. Its the most basic of connections really. All that needs to happen is connect to the host (192.168.1.254) and send a username and password. And there is no encryption at all.
How do achieve a PPTP connection to my modem with FreeBSD?
Kind Regards
Scott Cariss
