grunk 54a1a40181 Update to version 1.7.1, from new maintainer Stefan Sperling.
He also fixed wrong facts in the port's man page, updated MESSAGE accordingly,
removed an obsolete script, and improved the example configuration.

Thanks go to former maintainer Benoit LECOCQ, for having cared about the
port the time before.

You will need to allow gre traffic for pptp to work:
sysctl net.inet.gre.allow=1
See ${PREFIX}/share/doc/pptp/USING for an example configuration
specific to OpenBSD.
See http://www.counterpane.com/pptp-faq.html for a list of security flaws.

ATTENTION:
Alcatel ADSL modems contain default logins with easily computed passwords.
See http://security.sdsc.edu/self-help/alcatel/ for more information.

You may want to use TCP/IP packet filter rules to prevent unauthorized
access to your modem (from internal net or spoofed/bounced TCP/IP packets).
