PiePants Description

PiePants is a PPTP client for Mac OS X. It supports encrypted communications for secure connections to your PPTP VPN. PiePants only supports a single PPTP connection at a time. PiePants is designed to be very simple to use. Everything you need should be quickly available in the main window: To connect using PiePants, enter your connection information in the three required fields of the Settings tab: Put your VPN server's host name or IP address in the server field. Put your user name in the user name field (for Microsoft domain authentication, place the domain and user name as DOMAIN\username). Enter your password into the password field. After entering your settings, click the Connect button. PiePants will configure itself and Attempt to bring up a PPTP connection to the remote machine. While you are connected, status information will be updated in the main window, and the Connect button will change to Disconnect -- click Disconnect to disconnect from your PPTP VPN. You can find additional information about the connection in the Log window, available from the Windows menu: The Log window will display information about your connection. You can clear the log at any time by clicking the Clear button. You can save the log by clicking the Save... button. And you can print the log by clicking the Print... button. All of these options are also available from the main menu. You can configure advanced options in the Advanced tab of the main window: If you enable the Verbose Logging option, then PiePants will provide extensive information in the Log window. This can be helpful when trying to figure out why PPTP connections aren't working correctly. If you enable the Use Remote Gateway option, then PiePants will configure your network to use the VPN connection for all traffic (except the local network) while you are connected. Similarly, the Use Remote DNS option will cause the remote DNS servers.
