Title: How to Install PPTP VPN on CentOS Server (Linux)
Post by: Gaiacom_LC on April 14, 2014, 07:48:51 PM
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: 


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


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.
