RE: [FW1] PPTP thru SecuRemote ...?

[Chris F <freaknetboy@FW1-NOSPAMyahoo.com>]

I haven't followed this thread completely, so I might
be off base.

I have found that for PPTP to work correctly, you must
 explicitly define it in a rule. That is, do NOT trust
"Any" to handle a PPTP connection correctly. Be sure
to have a PPTP rule *before* an "Any" rule.

I'm not sure if this applies to your situation.

I'm done babbling :)

Good Luck -- Chris
