EasyVPN is a nice system utility that lets you change your VPN server settings. As you may know, Mac OS X comes with a built-in VPN server. The only problem is that the non-server editions of Mac OS X don't come with a configuration utility for the service. So, you have to configure the server with a terminal commands. EasyVPN is an application that solves that problem. It is the graphical user interface that the VPN service doesn't have on Mac OS X. With it, you can set up the service to your liking. The main window displays four tabs and an ON/OFF switch at the top. The first tab lets you configure the service using either the L2TP or PPTP protocols. The second tab lets you configure the DNS Servers to be used by clients, the search domains and the network routing tables. The third tab lets you access the service's logs, and, lastly, on the fourth tab, you can create new users for the service.
EasyVPN is not the first app that does this, but it seems to work and it is the cheaper alternative. The interface is very simple and there is a demo version available.
