PPTP appears as new modem type (Virtual Private Networking Adapter) that
can be selected when setting up a connection in the D ial-Up Networking folder.
The VPN Adapter type does not appear elsewhere in the system. Since PPTP
encapsulates its data stream in the PPP protocol, the VPN requires a second
dial-up adapter. This second dial-up adapter for VPN is added during the
installation phase of the Upgrade in addition to the first dial -up adapter that
provides PPP support for the analog or ISDN modem.
The PPTP is supported in Windows NT and Windows 98 already. For Windows 95,
it needs to be upgraded by the Dial-Up Networking 1.2 upgrade.
