    Summary: A PPTP server daemon
    Description: 
    PPTPd, Point-to-Point Tunnelling Protocol Daemon, offers out connections
    to PPTP clients to become virtual members of the IP pool owned by the PPTP
    server.  In effect, these clients become virtual members of the local
    subnet, regardless of what their real IP address is.  A tunnel is built
    between the PPTP server and client, and packets from the subnet are
    wrapped and passed between server and client similar to other C/S
    protocols.
