For the VPN client (iPad, Windows, OSX, Ubuntu Network Manager) the settings would be for the example above:


Protocol: PPTP


Server: your server public IP or DNS name


Login: opensource


Password: hacker


Encryption level: auto (or it should pick secure MPPE 128 by default)


Send all traffic: Yes (will forward all traffic through VPN, not just one inside your VPN devices)
