NAME
     l2tpd - Layer 2 Tunnelling Protocol Daemon

DESCRIPTION
     A	Layer  2 Tunneling Protocol VPN client/daemon for Linux and other POSIX-
     based OSs. Based off of L2TPd 0.61 from http://www.marko.net/l2tp

     l2tpd implements the Layer 2 Tunnelling Protocol, defined by RFC 2661.

OPTIONS
     -D     This option prevents l2tpd from detaching from the terminal and dae-
	    monizing.  This is recommended for the moment as the code  that  de-
	    taches from the terminal and daemonizes is not yet perfected.

     -c <config file>
	    Tells  l2tpd  to  use an alternate config file.  Default is /usr/lo-
	    cal/etc/l2tp/l2tpd.conf

     -s <secret file>
	    Tells l2tpd to use an alternate "secrets" file.  Default is /usr/lo-
	    cal/etc/l2tp/l2tp-secrets

     -p <pid file>
	    Tells  l2tpd  to  use   an	 alternate   pid   file.    Default   is
	    /var/run/l2tpd.pid

FILES
     /usr/local/etc/l2tp/l2tpd.conf		/usr/local/etc/l2tp/l2tp-secrets
     /var/run/l2tp-control
