PPTP VPN with static external IP
I try to setup a VPN Server (pptpd on Debian 5) to route an IP to my home PC when i login to the VPN - this works so far, i get the IP but then it is dead.

i cannot connect to anywhere, and only ping my IP - nothing else.

Any info on that?

I just want to have a static, external IP on the VPN Cient side - over PPTP.
