[ale] Connecting RedHat 6.1 to a Nortel PPTP VPN

[Jonathan Glass]

I found a hardware box that some of my colleagues on campus use
http://www.linksys.com/products/product.asp?grid=34&scid=29&prid=433

I'm hoping I can configure it to do the PPTP VPN stuff, and just give
the Linux box a network pipe.  

Thanks

Jonathan

I could authenticate but nothing more.  I could not ping anything, whether I was authenticated or not.  I finally gave up.  Nortel said its latest software was compatible with RH 8.0.
