VPN access – PPTP

I need to have pptpclient in FC6 to connect to my work. As of today (29/Oct) pptpclient.sf.net has not been updated to support FC6, at least in the web, but the packages are already available. To install pptpclient:

rpm -ihv http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/yum/stable/fc6/pptp-release-current.noarch.rpm

This will add a couple repositories with PPTP tunnelling software. Then:

yum --enablerepo=pptp-stable install pptpconfig

will install anything needed to create PPTP VPNs.
