If there is a pptd-server option to install in YaST2, you will need to install it. When I did it, I did not need to install it, but I was also experimenting with other VPN solutions, so the module could have been installed when I was trying them out.
If not, try starting the pptd daemon (I think its “service pptpd start” in the terminal) or give your home server a reboot.

I’m trying to set up the pptp-server webmin module on my system. Webmin says it has installed the module to /usr/share/webmin/pptp-server and says it should be under the networking category, but it does not show up there. I installed pptpd and ppp. I’m running the latest version of webmin and pptpd. Any advice or resources would be awesome.
