Title: PPTP access to some users
Post by: Greg on May 23, 2003, 01:43:29 AM

I need to allow say 5 of 50 users PPTP access. Can it be done?

If you allow PPTP in server-manager, by default all users will have access. To block access for some of them:
$ /sbin/e-smith/db accounts setprop username PPTPAccess off

Replace "username" with the name of the user you want to block.

there is at least one other line you need to execute
something like
db remoteaccess update

To be precise:
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event remoteaccess-update username

Again, replace username with the relevant user name.
