NOTE: PPTP VPN is considered insecure. Do not rely for this vpn if you need security. However, PPTP works out of the box on many operating systems, including many Linux distributions, Windows, Mac OS and Android and it's easily good enough for evading country level IP blocks.

If you keep the vpn server generated with this script on the internet for a long time (days or more), consider either restricting access to the ssh port on the server by ip addresses to the networks you use, if you know the addresses you are most likely to use or at least change ssh from port 22 to a random port.
You can also specify you own username and password, run ./CentOS-pptp-setup.sh -h
or sudo bash Ubuntu-pptp-setup.sh -h
for help.
