How to build a pptpd (VPN) service in CentOS 6.4

Since Linux itself does not have integrated PPTP functionality, it is necessary to install the relevant components to allow our Redhat to support PPTP, according to the kernel version, download the appropriate installation package, the components used are as follows:

dkms-2.2.0.3-1.noarch.rpm

kernel_ppp_mppe-1.0.2-3dkms.noarch.rpm

Pptpd-1.3.4.tar.gz

1.PPTP requires PPP support, although the system itself has PPP capabilities, but it does not support MPPE, so you need to update the system's PPP components,

[ROOT@HTUIDC local]# yum-y install gcc gcc-c++ rpm-build make wget automake

[ROOT@HTUIDC etc]# yum-y Install PPP

2. Install kernel MPPE (Microsoft Point to Point Encryption, Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption) patch, install the following command:

[ROOT@HTUIDC etc]# RPM-IVH dkms-2.2.0.3-1.noarch.rpm

[ROOT@HTUIDC etc]# RPM-IVH kernel_ppp_mppe-1.0.2-3dkms.noarch.rpm

Check that the kernel MPPE patch is successfully installed with the following command, MPPE module can include:

[ROOT@HTUIDC ~]# modprobe ppp-compress-18 && Echo Success

Success

[ROOT@HTUIDC etc]# CD/USR/LOCAL/SRC

[ROOT@HTUIDC src] #tar zxvf pptpd-1.3.4.tar.gz

[ROOT@HTUIDC src] #cd pptpd-1.3.4

[ROOT@HTUIDC pptpd-1.3.4]#./configure--prefix=/usr/local/pptpd

[ROOT@HTUIDC pptpd-1.3.4]# make && make install

After compiling the installation, you first need to manually build some directories and copy the original PPTPD configuration file:

[ROOT@HTUIDC pptpd-1.3.4]# Mkdir/usr/local/pptpd/etc

[ROOT@HTUIDC pptpd-1.3.4]# vi/usr/local/pptpd/etc/pptpd.conf

Fill in the contents as follows:

# pptpd.conf

Option/usr/local/pptpd/etc/options.pptpd

Debug

Stimeout 30

Localip 10.0.0.254

Remoteip 10.0.0.200-210

Description

OPTION/USR/LOCAL/PPTPD/ETC/OPTIONS.PPTPD ———— Specify the location of the PPTPD extended attribute profile options.pptpd.

Debug ———— Turn on debug mode, information and errors about PPTPD are recorded in the/var/logs/message for ease of error and debugging.

Stimeout ———— Set the maximum connection wait time (connection timeout) for the client to connect to PPTPD server, 30 seconds.

Localip 10.0.0.254 ———— pptpd server? The IP address of the server where you can set any IP address that is bound to the server.

Remoteip 10.0.0.200-210 ———— Set the range of IP addresses (10.0.0.200–10.0.0.210) that clients can allocate after they connect to PPTPD server, you can set this: 10.0.0.200-208,10.0.0. 209,10.0.0.210, the effect is the same.

[ROOT@HTUIDC pptpd-1.3.4]# VI/USR/LOCAL/PPTPD/ETC/OPTIONS.PPTPD

Fill in the contents as follows:
