Hey Folks,

I have a computer at home that dualboots windows XP Pro and ubuntu 10.04. I also have a laptop I roam with that uses 10.04. I need to be able to connect to home to use printers and shares from the main PC. I set up a PPTP Server on the XP Side and am able to connect to it with the VPN client in Ubuntu on my laptop.

I cannot get PPTPd working however. I've followed all the directions in several guides, I also shut off my firewall just to see if that was an issue. Still unable to connect.

Anyone have any idea's or who have set this up successfully? If not does anyone have an alternate solution that will work both with XP and Ubuntu?
