I was about to setup another PPTPd on one a new VPS that I got and i have always used a script that used to be @ http://www.putdispenserhere.com/, but the site was down so after a little investigation (google cache) I found a copy that I cleaned up for readability and saved it here for future usage.
Make sure that your VPS has it’s PPP module working. To check, run:
|
1 |
cat /dev/ppp |
If you receive this message, your PPP module is ready for use:
|
1 |
cat: /dev/ppp: No such device or address |
To install the script, copy and paste this into your SSH client of choice:
|
1 2 3 |
wget http://www.lowendguide.com/pptpinstall.sh chmod +x pptpinstall.sh ./pptpinstall.sh |
