I just tackled this. Is this the correct setup of your situation:
192.168.88.7-client-12.34.56.78 <--Internet--> 111.11.11.11-server-192.168.1.112
If so then you first need to designate a range of 192.168.1.x addresses for use
with pptp. Then your pptp.conf file will look like:
localip 192.168.1.112
remoteip 192.168.1.x-y
I don't know what you're using on the client side but if you're using the linux
pptp client then you'll do something like this:
$ su
$ pptp 111.11.11.11 name dmorse
Hope this helps.

Gee, if some snot-nosed little kid sent me to prison, the first thing
out, I'd find out where he lives, and tear him a new belly button.
