The local end can map a share, but transfers hang.  Ftp connect,
transfers hang, etc.

You're close, except it's Windoze at both ends.
Doesn't work: Local WinXP to Remote WinNT Server
Works: Remote WinXP to Local Win2000 Server

While I'm at it, do I want the tcpdump for eth1 or ipsec0 (I assume not
ppp0 since it's all encrypted, but wasn't sure.)

Another note I wanted to repeat just in case it was important and
overlooked in my 1st message of this lengthy thread.  When I restart
PPPoE (locally), in the course of the connection establishing I get
messages to the effect of "Cant't increase MTU to 1500" serveral times.
That may not be the exact message, because I can't see it in the logs
when I reboot the router remotely.

Thanks for all the support.
