View source for Setup PPTP for Internet Sharing

==Description==

This tutorial will help you setup a simple PPTP for both server and client side in order to share a single internet connection either between friends or between yourself and your office ( should the office be wug linked as well )

=Server Side=

==Enabling Server==

Settings for the server will be as follows. Please ensure that the RB running the server also has an active Internet Connection, either through additional routes or through PPPoE ( See [[PPPOE_Internet|PPPoE Internet]] )

* Click on "PPP" which will open the box shown by the arrow.
* Click on "PPTP" Server. The box shown will open.
* Check the "Enabled" box and all authentication box's at the bottom.
* Click "Apply" and then "OK"

==Adding Users==

* In the "PPP" Screen, Select the "Secrets" tab. A "New PPP Secret" Box will pop up.
* Name: The username for the person connecting to your server.
* Password: Password for this account.
* Profile: default-encryption
* Local Address: 172.1.103.1 ( You can theoretically make it any ip address but for this example and for all the setups I have done, this is the exact method I did )
* Remote Address: 172.1.104.1. When complete click apply, then OK and this new user will be saved onto your RB ready for connecting from a remote source.

To add more users, follow the same procedure as above noting the "Local Address" must always be constant ( i.e. 172.1.103.1 ) for all accounts and the remote address will increase in increments of one for every user ( i.e. Next users address will be 172.1.104.2 )

Additionally the reason for the weird IP address is that it does not conflict with any known CTWUG or default IP's.
