IPTables 1.2.7a does not support protocol 47 which is required for PPTP.
What does that mean? I thing, it should be no problem to open protocol 47 with iptables.
Read the netfilter docs.
In order to make this work you need to run the p-o-m patch for IPTables And apply the pptp_conntrack, and pptp_nat patches.
Well, but this is only needed to extend the packet filter to stateful inspection I guess? Is this correct?
No, If you wish to allow pptp to a natted pptp server you need these modules.
BTW, IPSec should be preferred over PPTP I think.
Without a doubt. But if you live in a NT domain ...
