What speed PC are you running your firewall on? It may not be related but when I have a Bering uClib Firewall do a PPTP tunnel (outbound from the firewall to another non Bering Firewall, and my Bering Firewall is running on a Pentium 3 processor above 450Mhz the tunnel will start but no traffic ever flows over it.
An AMD K5 works, so does a P 200, P2 400, P3 450 etc.. I know parts of the PPTP rely on PPP for connection etc... I never have worked out why this problem happens and only when connecting to a Windows Server endpoint or cisco box etc.. never a Bering Firewall. As I sid this may be a red herring but who knows ( also if someone does know I also would like to know why...)
