Do what I do.. create a tunnel between the two networks instead of using the
client to make the connection...
client----firewall-------/ internet /-----firewall-----servers
PPTP------------------------------PPTPD
then you can iptables the client through.. also proxy them in..

Subject: PPTP through iptables FW...
I haven't looked into this, but is there a method to connect to a pptp
server from behind an iptables firewall? I have seen glimpses of
persons using something called ip_conntrack_pptp (sp?) and that seems it
will fit the bill...not sure..here is ASCII art:
Client-----IPTABLES Firewall------INTERNET--------Remote PPTP
server------Server
I am currently using IPTables 1.2.5
