## NAME

Fwctl::Services::pptp - Fwctl module to handle the PPTP service.

## DESCRIPTION

This module will implements the rules to accept/block/account the PPTP tunnelling protocol. In order to be able to masquerade that protocol, you will need a kernel with the generic protocol masquerade patch applied.
