PTPP is a VPN protocol that shares many advantages with advanced, enterprise-ready VPN protocols. It is useful for securing point-to-point connections between servers, clients, and networks.*****

Installing a PPTP VPN on a Linux dedicated server, VPS, or other machine is a simple and fairly convenient process.*****


To begin, access your server as root. Then, run the following commands to download and run a one-click PPTP VPN install script:*****




yum install -y git
cd /opt && git clone git://github.com/drewsymo/VPN.git
cd VPN && bash vpn-setup-vanilla.sh


The script will output a username and password that you can use to connect to the VPN network from any VPN-ready client, such as a PC, phone, or another server.*****

That's a pretty nice write up!

Just to add PPTP and L2TP itself are not that secure when you compare it with OpenVPN connection.
