Do you know if PoPToP is compatible with Jaguar's VPN client? Their
website ([url]www.poptop.org[/url]) says it works with Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP
PPTP clients, and with the Linux PPTP client. Doesn't mention anything
about MacOS X clients.

Several months ago, I setup PoPToP (1.1.3) under Slackware Linux, and
I could get it work with a Windows 2000 client, but like you, I was
unable to get it to work with 10.2.x.

If you find any information on setting up PoPToP to support OS X, could
you forward that to me?

Thank you,

Actually I don't know if it is compatible. I was hoping that Jaguar's
VPN client was compatible with what appears to be the MS standard for
PPTP (which I believe PoPToP complies with). The Jaguar VPN client is
pretty bad as there are no configurable parameters for connecting. Oh
well....
