I've implemented a few of these.  There are two patches that I suggest if you are going to set up a PPTP VPN server.  One is MPPE (needed for

encryption) and the other is a patch to strip the domain name from the user name provided during authentication (this helps with maintaining user names and passwords).

The MPPE patch will require patching both PPP and the kernel.  The domain name patch is applied against PPP only.  I have a deb of the patched PPP if you'd like.
