 | cd /usr/ports/net/pptpclient
 | make fetch
 | make extract
 | make patch
 
 BTW: You can just type "make patch", and it will automatically fetch and
 extract for you.
 
 | cd work/pptp*
 | vi Makefile (and modify /usr/sbin/ppp by /usr/sbin/pppd arround line 17)
                ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 These are two very different programs.  I know the makefile says "your
 pppd binary", but generally you don't need to modify anything in work
 yourself (the port will have a regex/patch/user dialog).
 
 | cd ../../
 | make; make install
 | modify /etc/options & /etc/pap-secrets with my passwd & config
 | pptp 10.0.0.138
 | -> error !!! (-direct options unknown)
 | 
 
 -direct is an option for ppp(8).  Although I haven't taken a look at
 this port, it appears that you've now manually told the port to use
 pppd(8) instead of ppp(8), and -direct isn't an option for pppd.
