Unfortunately it's not that easy.
I copy pasted example for a pptp client from the example file and it
wouldn't connect.
Under further investigation I found out it's because the example tries to
connect without encryption/compression even without an authentication type.
What I did find out is the unit im trying to connect to requires mschapv2
with stateless mppe 128.
After searching for other sections in the config file with examples for
setups like this is I built following config..
pptp_client:
#
# PPTP client: only outgoing calls, auto reconnect,
# ipcp-negotiated address, one-sided authentication,
# default route points on ISP's end
#
create bundle static B1
set ipcp ranges 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0
set iface enable tcpmssfix
set ipcp yes vjcomp
create link static L1 pptp
set link action bundle B1
# Allow peer to authenticate us
set link enable chap-msv2
set link accept chap-msv2
# Enable Microsoft Point-to-Point encryption (MPPE)
set bundle enable compression
set ccp yes mppc
set mppc yes e40
set mppc yes e128
set bundle enable crypt-reqd
set mppc yes stateless
set link yes acfcomp protocomp
set auth authname myusernamehere
set auth password mypasswordhere
set link max-redial 0
set link mtu 1460
set link keep-alive 20 75
set pptp peer theiphere
set pptp disable windowing
open
However this doesn't work either.
First of all I get following errors on load of mpd5:
Multi-link PPP daemon for FreeBSD
process 2507 started, version 5.2 ([EMAIL PROTECTED] 12:33
8-Nov-2008)
Label 'startup' not found
[B1] Bundle: Interface ng0 created
mpd.conf:29: Incorrect context for: 'set bundle enable compression'
mpd.conf:31: Incorrect context for: 'set ccp yes mppc'
mpd.conf:32: Incorrect context for: 'set mppc yes e128'
mpd.conf:33: Incorrect context for: 'set bundle enable crypt-reqd'
mpd.conf:34: Incorrect context for: 'set mppc yes stateless'
And ive got a fealing that's it's because of this that it cannot connect..
And the odd thing is that all of those options weir copy/pasted out of the
sample file for mpd5!!!!
Advise?

Does anybody know where I can find help for setting this up.
I have used both mpd4 and mp5 for client connections, but not inter-office
connections.
You just install and configure. It's not so complicated if you read the
sample configuration file!
