Hello,

I've followed the advice in this guide:

http://m0n0.ch/wall/guides/pptpvpn.pdf

And am not able to access pptp from a remote location (i.e. on 
the WAN side of the firewall). I've done a port scan with nmap on 
the WAN side and all ports are blocked and it in fact doesn't 
even respond to a ping - which I’m guessing is the default 
behavior. On the LAN side port 1723 (i.e. the pptp port) is open 
and I was able to connect to pptp using the standard windows XP 
built in client. I have the "pptp -> any rule" as described in 
the pdf. Does anybody have any suggestions for allowing me to 
remotely access pptp (i.e. through the WAN interface)?

I have enabled all ports on the wan side with a wan rule of * * * 
* * and that didn't do anything to allow access to pptp from the 
WAN side.

Or, if this is an egregious security error could somebody please 
suggest a better alternative for remote access to the LAN.

Thanks for the help

Matthew
