VPN server in Ubuntu 11.04 32Bit (OpenVZ)
Hi guys! I have a vps and i want to install a vpn service so i can connect from both my linux and windows computers.. so what i did..after a clean install:
-sudo apt-get update
-sudo apt-get install pptpd
-sudo vi /etc/pptpd.conf and i removed the # from local and remote ip. i read that it doesnt matter what i will enter there because its my server's job to assing new IPs.
-sudo vi /etc/ppp/chap-secrets and i added user1 pptpd pass1 *
-sudo /etc/init.d/pptpd restart
the output of netstat -an | grep LISTEN is:

PS where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the same ip..my external ip of my vps thanks
PS2 i put in blue color the port so you can see ithe service is running..
PS3 i heard something about forwarding and someonthing about pptpproxy??is that my problem? or that i left local ip and remote ip in the config file the defaults?(i just removed the 2 # infront of localip and remoteip)thanks
