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
	      daemonizing.   This  is  recommended  for	the moment as the code
	      that detaches from the terminal and daemonizes is	not  yet  per-
	      fected.

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

       -s <secret file>
	      Tells l2tpd to use an  alternate	"secrets"  file.   Default  is
	      /usr/local/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
