My goal is to make VPN access to our Samba PDC (FreeBSD 7.0) so that users

make it work.

Jon,
I do it this way:
pptp VPN server
/etc/pptpd.conf
option /etc/ppp/options.pptp
debug (comment out after testing)
localip 192.168.7.12
remoteip 192.168.7.2-5
pidfile /var/run/pptpd.pid
/etc/ppp/options.pptp
lock
noauth
nobsdcomp
lcp-echo-failure 10
lcp-echo-interval 10
/etc/ppp/options
name bonza.rbpllc.com
noipdefault
noauth
lock
local
lcp-echo-interval 30
lcp-echo-failure 4
lcp-max-configure 60
lcp-restart 2
idle 600
noipx
file /etc/ppp/filters
proxyarp
ms-dns 192.168.7.15
ms-wins 192.168.7.15
refuse-chap
refuse-mschap
/etc/ppp/pap-secrets
* bonza.rbpllc.com ""
<username> <yourserver.yourdomain.com> <password> *
/etc/ppp/chap-secrets
<username> * <password> *
Of course, use your own information and get rid of the "< >" in the pap
and chap-secret files. Good luck. This works like a charm. Just don't
forget to open [port 1723] in your firewall and router for accessing the
server locally as well as remotely. Also, you may need:
# TAG: bcrelay <if>
bcrelay eth0
in /etc/pptpd.conf if you are running an older version of pptpd to
improve remote browsing.
