Ah, yeah, that'd do it.  :)

Easiest way is to make the pptp clients set their machine's workgroup at
whatever your domain name is, put a WINS server on your network, and have
them use it in their dial-up profile (and/or add the 'ms-wins x.x.x.x' tag
to the ppp options file). This one can be _really_ tricky to get working,
but usually isn't too bad...
