Hmm do you have any telnet servers you could try to connect to thought the tunnel? I'm wondering if you're running into a MSS/no fragmentation issue. It might be nice to see a tcpdump -ni $lan-if -w output.pcap 'host $your_client_ip' from the firewall. Let it capture for 5 mins while you try the remote desktop session. When your finished just ctrl-c the tcpdump and send it this way. You should know have a output.pcap file from what ever dir you run that command.
I'm guessing we might need to do some mss fixup for ipsec tunnels.

At home I'm using the latest pfsense, 0.86.4, and at work, m0n0wall. I used the basic instructions in the tutorial. The home network is 10.53.x.x/24, the work network is 192.168.x.x/24. Both are NAT'ed. At home I have a dynamic DNS, but that's ok since I only want to be able to connect *to* the office. The tunnel gets established properly, and I can ping machines at the office through the tunnel. I can access the webgui of the office's m0n0wall router without a problem. However, I cannot use remote desktop. When I attempt to connect to a machine, I get a partial connection (the screen starts drawing), but it hangs and never even shows me the login information. I was also hoping to access our office's sql server using the tunnel. I can establish the connection, but queries are never returned, and query analyzer always complains about a broken network connection. I'm guessing this has something to do with having the networks behind NAT.
