Hello

I am very thankfull to you for reading that document and giving me your feedback. Can you refer me to a site that shows how to setup a Linux box to connect to EOL with l2tp step by step? I got some software for l2tp which I installed but did not know how to setup the connection with EOL. I am using Fedora Core 1.

Thanks alot for your time.

I had a look at that document. They use L2TP for tunnelling over GPRS
(probably because of NAT). But it is not a VPN server: IPsec is not used.

You do not need IPsec or FreeS/WAN. EOL uses unencrypted L2TP. So you
only need l2tpd or rp-l2tp in "client mode".
