[pptp-server] subnet gateway problem

[George Vieira]

"NOPE" doesn't tell us what tcpdump returned nor does it any differences
anywhere where you may not have noticed. We can't help you if you can't help
us by sending us as much info as possible.
 
What parameters did you pass tcpdump if any? Did you get any output at all
from it?

Use tcpdump to see what's going on... you need to check all things like

tcpdump

netstat -rn

ifconfig

etc.etc.

use tcpdump to see if pings are coming through then check that ip_forward is
on!

echo 1 > /proc/net/.......something.../ip_forward depending on our distro...

You only need one ip for localip

IIRC, this is normal.  Try adding proxyarp to your ppp/options file or your 
pptpd.conf file.
