I do this all the time. I PPtP to my core router then point 10/8 up
the PPtP, and can then access my entire network. How you do that is up
to you. Network manager should be able to, your ppp script should be
able, I do it by hand cause I never know just what interface I am
doing the PPtP from.

route add -net 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 gw <remote side ip>
or
ip route add 10.0.0.0/8 via <remote side ip>
