John:
The utility 'ipfwd' is what to use to "protocol
forward" (a good expression for it, btw). Also, please be
sure to be using one of the VPN kernels, with one of the
ip_masq_pptp.o modules. For example:
http://lrp1.steinkuehler.net/files/kernels/2.2.16-1-VPNMasq/
I'm using echowall.lrp as my firewall setup script,
and I've gotten both PPTP and IPSec VPN clients working
behind it. So besides having the right kernel and the right
firewall setup, you should be all set.
Good luck!
