I'm trying to configure pptp so I can connect my laptop to my home network
while I am at work.
At home, I have a Linux box running IP masquerading with several windows
PCs behind it. (I would like to be able to access files on these Windows
PCs remotely)
At work, we have a Linux firewall which runs IP Masquerading for all of
the workstations.
When I try to connect from behind the linux firewall at work, I get error
650 on the windows machine. The info in pptpd.log is as follows:

Any ideas as to what this could be? I know that things are set up correctly
because I can connect fine if I place myself on the other side of the Linux
firewall and try to connect from a "real" IP address. Is there anything you
know of that needs to be changed in the Masq config to get things working?
(Or will it work at all?) I can see port 1723 through the firewall, fwiw.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide...
