One good thing about Checkpoint's FW-1 is that you can filter to let
MSX-connections through only - theoretically. The FW1's definition of
the MSX protocol checks for the RPC number only (if I understand
correctly). So limit your VPN access to just the services needed, too.
Do NOT allow the wide (general) TCP/135 if you only need MSX. But maybe
you need access for your NT-Administrators - and thus full TCP/135.

In any case:
    good luck &
        be careful
