            Works fine on the firewalls here. We use a 1:1 nat as other services run on these boxes and have the following rules on the wan

            pro  source  port  destination  port
            tcp  any    any  172.x.x.x    1723
            gre  any    any  172.x.x.x

            Never underestimate the power of human stupidity

              you mention lan client, just so we are clear - your trying to run your PPTP server on this 2008 box that sits behind your pfsense and you want to allow clients from the internet to get to it.

              Or are you saying your wanting a client behind pfsense to get to a remote PPTP server?

              pfsense can act as the PPTP server, and be your endpoint - this might be a better setup then an endpoint inside your network.
