I have the following problem and can't figure out why it's going wrong, I have the latest 1.0Beta2 running.
 
I have setup a box, with pfsense, and everything works fine so I connect to my office pptp server to check my e-mail, till now no problem.
Sinse I now and then want to check my computer at home, I have enabled the pptp server within pfsense, after that I checked if it worked from my internal lan, and it did.
So I wanted to enable and make it available for my office so I can connect to my home.
So I created a nat rule from 1723 to 1723 on the ip adres of pfsense, and let it create a filter rule.
Now my problem ocurs, I can't create a PPTP connection to my office lan anymore, it keeps hanging on verifying username and password.
After I remove the nat and filter rules, disable the pptp server, reboot pfsense then I am able to make to connection again.
 
On monowall this worked veryfine, but sinse pfsense has more configuration options and a shell to customize several things like the timeout in PPTP..... and off-course many other features I wanted to use that.
 
Does anyone no a solution to this problem?
 
Here are my nat and filter rules from the config
NAT
- <rule>
  <protocol>tcp</protocol>
  <external-port>1723</external-port>
  <target>192.168.10.1</target>
  <local-port>1723</local-port>
  <interface>wan</interface>
  <descr>pptp</descr>
  </rule>
Filter
<rule>
  <interface>wan</interface>
  <protocol>tcp</protocol>
- <source>
  <any />
  </source>
- <destination>
  <address>192.168.10.1</address>
  <port>1723</port>
  </destination>
  <descr>NAT pptp</descr>
  </rule>
