hi all,

I was wondering: PPTP use RC4 up to 128 bit keys as an encryption mechanism. 
I'd like
to have the impressions from people of the list about the cryptographic 
strenght of
such algorithm, especially now that wireless WEP RC4 based encryption have been 
broken. 
I understand that the problem in WEP is the key extrapolation which is the 
problem, but
i'd like to know if RC4 in PPTP can be considered as secure, purely on 
encryption side.

Thanks for any pointer on this.( except the 'read the applied cryptography book 
;)
