Re: VPN PPTP and Firewall settings



Port 47 is your GRE port.  You have to have this open for PPTP VPN connections to work correctly (at least with Windows).

Some things I have found with VPN services is you have to have some  
other ports opened up on your firewall as well:

I have the following opened or checked off:

ESP - Encapsulating Security Payload protocol
500 -   VPN ISAKMP/IKE -- UDP
1723 - PPTP --  TCP
4500 - IKE NAT Transversal -- UDP
