If you want PPTP because of Windows clients, you need some kernel patches and
some firewall patches. You can use a CentOS spinoff like ClarkConnect for this
as it already has the patches, and a decent web config to set things up. If
you want something more secure, use OpenVPN, but you will have to set each
client up manually.
