PPTP client with Linux

tank
Has anyone setup a linux client to connect to Astaro PPTP?  I know about the pptpclient for linux.  But has anyone actually configured it and gotten it working with astaro?  If so do you have a good link to a HOWTO for it.

Thanks

    I used PPTP client from http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/ and I got it working without much trouble. Routing is done nicely and only the traffic between protected network and roadwarrior is encrypted. If you want this to happen in windows you have to tweak routing tables manually.

    It required kernel patching/building some mppe module and installation/ugrade of ppp. I followed instructions for RH9 on that website and got it working ok.

    Configruation of PPTP itself was easy with GUI provided by authors (but in separate package). pptp-gtk-php should be easy to follow but remember to take latest version. Old version did not allow me to update created connections and connecting didn't work either. I use 20030505.

    Thanks guys, I did get PPTP to work on linux.  What I needed was a patch to my kernel to support mppe.
