247	  of a server.  DCC Sending is used anywhere you send files over IRC,
248	  and DCC Chat is most commonly used by Eggdrop bots.  If you are

301	  box, you may want to enable this feature.
302
303	  Please note that not all PPTP modes of operation are supported yet.
304	  Specifically these limitations exist:
