That firewall plugin states that it is automatically enabled when PPTP is
enabled, and indeed it seams to be.  The firewall problem is at the client
side where I am behind a firewall I have no control on.

Okay, have made progress with OpenVPN.  Got the certificates all set up.
Configured Viscosity client and it failed to connect.  Decided to open
EXT->Local for port 1194 in the Astlinux firewall and then it connected.  I
can ping 192.168.1.1 (my Astlinux box).  However I cannot get to anything
else inside my network, no 192.168.1.xx.  No ping, no http.   Is there
anything else I have to do at my firewall or at the viscosity client side?
 I do have "route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0" in the push field on the
server.

Thanks,
David
