Hello Seth,

        Not sure why you want to do this, since you could just assign a static private 
IP to the other user. Also, now-a-days, most NATs don't break PPTP or IPSEC, so I 
don't think you really need to do this, unless this user plans on hosting servers or 
services on their network. If they plan to (not sure what type of equipment you have), 
but you could bridge real IPs across a wireless setup, or could do One to One (real IP 
to NAT addressing). I still think this is unnecessary, and just give the user a static 
private IP.

-Ben
