      What are the reasons for pfsense using mpd4 instead of the recent 5.x (apart from pppoe) ?

      Checking http://mpd.sourceforge.net/doc5/mpd4.html there seem to be several improvements in recent versions.

        @http://mpd.sourceforge.net/doc5/mpd4.html:

        Changes since version 4:     Massive changes in configuration commands.

        This would presumably require considerable coding to switch to 5.

          for further information, we use both 4 and 5 depending on client or server connections.

            Which mpd version will be used for pfsense 2.1 PPTP-server ?

            People have reported mpd5.5+MPPC issues with the new Win7 RAS clients (whereas WinXP clients work fine).

            You probably also have heard about the issues with iPhone's PPTP client since iOS 4.3 google. Btw in poptop the iPhone pptp incompatibility issue can be fixed by adding
            nopcomp
            noaccomp
