The problem for outgoing PPTP masquerading is due to Redhat not having the
latest patch from jhardin in their kernel releases. Redhat applied the
VS-Masq patch to the kernel and it broke the PPTP-Masq patch. There is a
patch to apply to correct this on Redhat systems, but I can't get any kernel
to compile on my RH7 machines so I can't contribute it.
The kernels from Redhat for 6.2 have the same problem. I was able to
properly compile everything on a 6.2 system and I currently use the
PPTP-Masq for outgoing connections through my e-smith 4.0 system.
