Documentation seems to imply a /etc/pptpd.conf file, but there
isn't one with the installation.

There is a file /etc/ppp/pptpd-options, but this is supposed to be
only for when clients connect. IT says it is being pointed to by
this mythical /etc/pptpd.conf file.

Can someone enlighten my how I am supposed to use pptpd on debian

Are you trying to run a VPN *server*? Of not, why are you running
it? If so, why are you running it? PPTP is not secure at all.


Yes its the server I am trying to run.

I want to explore setting up a simple VOIP PBX for the family and will
use this as a trial to avoid dealing with NAT problems with SIP and RTP
protocols.
