I have used a tool before that allows sniffing on a RAS connection.  It may
be useful to you.  I have had problems getting it to work, but i may have an
old version and/or driver problems (I was using version 2.0).  The app is
called Distict Network Monitor (www.distinct.com).  It has a 30-day
evaluation period.  I don't know of any other RAS sniffers.

I unfortunately have very little experience in doing any sort of PT on a RAS
box... let's assume it's an NT box.  Other than enforcing strong passwords
or maybe strong authentication via certificates or SecurID-type cards, what
else can I do to A) protect it, and B) run some sort of PT against it?
