Does anyone have additional info about the 'secure' Microsoft
Point-to-Point-Tunneling-Protocol?
U.S. Robotics is developing PPTP for Microsoft. It's designed
to terminate a link between a remote PC client and an NT server,
rather stop at the RAS dial-in hardware. PPTP is based on PPP,
and uses the authentication and encryption of RAS.

Anyone know if a remote PC can dial into a provider, and setup
PPTP to a NT server through a firewall? How about a port number?
