Re: VPN with Fedora - PPTP

[Sébastien Bisoglio <bsebastien bluewin ch>]

For the moment it is an PPTP connection for the VPN (port 1723 TCP).. 
But it isn't secure.. And i haven't find RPM to make it then i don't 
want this solution..

Have you make L2TP VPN under Linux ? With fedora ? How have you make ?

Thanks
