What do you mean when you say "outside servers" ?
Are you saying that after the PPTP connection is made from client to server that your client can access the server via IP but is not able to access any network services on
other machines ?
Did you double check that IP forwarding is enabled and what about NAT rules ? Are you natting all traffic so it appears to come from the server or is your network setup to
route traffic to the client network ?

Hum,
I'm not having problems when i connecto to the pptp server on the linux
box, i'm having problems when i try to connect to outsite servers like:
my computer => linux gateway with kernel 2.6.20-rcX (also has a pptp
server that works file with all kernels) => WEB => remote linux/windows
pptp server
mppe is not used in this case (if i'm correct, at least never used it)
When i connect from the outsite to my linux pptp server, all works ok
Can this be the new *nf_nat_pptp* modules?

Hey,
Check out the pptp site for more info:
http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net
http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/howto-diagnosis.phtml#mppe_kernel

Check MPPE in kernel Support
Make sure the MPPE module can be loaded:
# modprobe ppp-compress-18
If this module loads without error, then all is well with it. If
errors are generated, you must find the cause and fix it. There are
numerous causes of a failure to load. Some of the causes are;
1. depmod -a was not run after loading a kernel-mppe rpm,
2. the MPPE module cannot be found in the appropriate /lib/modules
directory,
3. the MPPE module that was found cannot be loaded because of
version conflicts,
4. an old mppe.o file was left around after an upgrade that
provided an ppp_mppe.o file (which results in "init_module: File
exists" error if the mppe.o module is loaded somehow),
2003-08-01
5. the ppp_generic module cannot activate the MPPE module when it
finds it needs it, because you are using PPP-MPPE 2.4.0 and the
/etc/modules.conf file does not have an entry for alias
ppp-compress-18 mppe,
6. the PPP modules were compiled into the kernel statically (they
must be modules for MPPE to work as a module),
7. the ppp_async module cannot be loaded (although pptp does not
use a serial port, the ppp_async module is required for data transfer
with the psuedo-tty device).

Well i don't use iptables-save, i just have all rules and the
modprobe's in
a startup file.
Anyway Linus isn't talking about a solution, is there one already?
