When you say you have it working, under what circumstances ? I have one
network card in the p/c and it sits behind a lrp box that is doing
pptp-masq. does it specifically need two network cards and a direct
connection to the net. I had to change the 'listening' interface to
192.168.x.x for it to acknowledge a connection.
