They don't really have any documentation on how to use the pptp client. I tried grabbing it from sourceforge, but the documentation is outdated. I assumed it would just add another network gateway, but it doesn't seem to have done it. Is there anyone with pptp client experience who can tell me how to actually use it from rh8.0. I'm assuming that once i get the pptp client running I simply use samba to get to the office shares, am I correct? -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
