Hi Doug:


Go to archlinux.org and click on AUR. Then do a search for pptp

Search will reveal a link for pptpclient 1.7.0. Click to bring up the
package page.

Follow the link to the website (http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net) and you
will find documentation on using pptpclient.

Of course, you will also need to download and unpack the package tarball
and run makepkg in the directory to build the package. 

Cheers,
Kurt
