Firewall rules seem to be a big obstacle here.  Has anyone published a good
firewall rule set?  Or at least a complete set of rules required for samba,
ping masq, etc for the pptp connection?

Sounds like your firewall rules are messed up. Pretty much, if you can
ping it from a box sitting on the network, you should be able to ping it
from a remote client.
