Big PPTP server

Archie, Julian:

Just wanted to ask about the feasibility of the following idea. 
Would it be possible to use the Netgraph PPTP node, in combination 
with Brian Somers' userland PPP implementation, to make a PPTP 
server? It would work similarly to FreeBSD's "pppoed", which uses 
the Netgraph PPPoE node. This would provide the full feature set of 
the userland PPP (including dynamic creation of Netgraph nodes, the 
ability to call out to shell scripts, etc.) together with your PPTP 
implementation. How hard would it be to cobble this together, 
starting with the code for pppoed?
