I use VPN between FreeBSD and FreeBSD using ssh as a secure tunnel and run /usr/sbin/ppp over that. Works very fine for me.

Specifically, man ppp says about PPP over TCP: The major disadvantage of this mechanism is that there are two guaran- teed delivery mechanisms in place - the underlying TCP stream and what- ever protocol is used over the PPP link - probably TCP again. If packets are lost, both levels will get in each others way trying to negotiate sending of the missing packet. In this case, things are probably even more wrapped: ssh uses real TCP connection, encryption layer adds protocol overhead, then PPP uses all this for its own packets, and finally another TCP/IP stack is encapsulated. Some kind of packet-for-packet encryption is probably more appropriate, like encryption inside ppp (standard /usr/sbin/ppp claims to support MPPE, but i've never tried that), or already mentioned in this thread pptpclient, or mpd, or OpenVPN, or IPsec, or whatever. However long time ago when there was no such variety of solutions, i went ahead and simply wrapped ppp into ssh tunnel, and it just worked. With good network connection i didn't experience any inconviniences, even that i'm running ssh over that encrypted tunnel. So here it is -- for those who want to try themselves.
