> PPTP is merely two TCP connections between the PPTP server, and the FEP.
FYI, MS has said that it will provide PPTP in Win95 clients by year
end which reduces need for PPTP in FEPs. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Russ said firewall vendors should make their clients PPTP compatible.
Well if I can get mine free from MS, why should I spend the money?

I haven't heard a PPTP routing story that makes sense. For example, if the
session is encrypted (RAS encrypts the data in the tunnel at the
client), how is PPTP going to see the IP address information to
route? It will be encrypted. Someone fill in the gaps please.
