Thanks all!  I really don't know what type of VPN implementation is used so
my question was unclear.  Sorry about that.
I've gotten a lot of informative responses and will try them all.  

Thanks again!

Mark,

It depends on what VPN server you are connecting to.
if you are connecting to Microsoft's PPTP server
then you need to open

TCP 1723 
and Protocol GRE

if it's IPSec then it's a different kettle of fish.

Let me re-phrase my question.  How can I get VPN to work over IPtables?
I don't know what VPN software my company is using.  Are there any rule sets
or papers I can read though to start?

Thanks!

Mark

1) what VPN software are you using?
2) what packets are being dropped?  I do a "-j LOG --log-prefix 'DROP '"
   before I drop anything so I know what's going on.
