Hi
I am appreciated NewGroup members' help.
Thanks to members faver. I find out that ISP filters pptp packets (protocol# 47 GRE) pass from remote user(MS clients) to PoPToP Server.

(casue) filterd protocol #47(pptp packet)
Our ISP(located in SOUTH KOREA) filters GRE packets.
I would like to know how GRE packets can pass through ISP.
and...also Do you know that other country ISPs filter out GRE packets (except tcp/udp/icmp/...)
Any help appreciated.
