[pptp-server] a Cosmetic problem

[Matt Gavin]

This is not a PoPToP problem. The fact that it works for the index page
means that it is working and PoPToP is not failing for you, remember PoPToP
simply provides a tunnel... to the private/your network. This will be
Apache/IIS and/or your Proxy settings.

What is your Web Server for Intranet? Do you have a proxy server? When you
visit another page on the Intranet, are you maintaining the domain? Do you
have a Proxy Server enabled for your Internet Access even before you reach
the VPN?

Full domain name matters not.
I CAN nslookup/ping/telnet/ftp/ssh anything anywhere
and iptables -L shows no dropped/rejected packets.
