      No, it's not possible.

      For an IPv6 remote access VPN, your best bet currently is OpenVPN.

      PPTP is dead. Forget it exists.

          The protocol itself may have the potential to support IPv6, but with the encryption broken nobody wants to spend time to do anything with it. It's not worth anyone's time. Use a different VPN type.

            i understand you.
            its just for educational purposes and its easy since it dont require software on the clients.
