Under Network - PPTP you can turn PPTP on/off. Once it is on any PPtp connections made will automatically be assigned an ip adress...this address is adressable to your internal network - ie you should be able to ping/use network resources on your internal network with out issue.
Under Definitions - Users you can add roadwarrior users...
Make sure you use 128 bit encryption as well
I think this is all in the manual?
anyway if i didnt answer your question...post again with more details [;)]

i have try to use internal network adress to be attribute for my PPTP Client but Astaro attribute IP adresses which are allready in use on my internal network !!! [:(] (
There may be some confusion.....Hope I can help...I can see why you would want to configure your PPTP pool from the internal network......reasoning would say that they have now been given an IP address from the same network and therefore be able to access netwotk resources. Unfortunatley if you are using DHCP, the Astaro box does not check the dhcp pool and see if the IP address it wants to give out is already taken....therefore it is possible to have to clients with the same IP address which is a big no no.....and is what you are experiencing.....
the work around for this is to go to Network/PPTP Road warrior access/PPTP IP pool and from the drop down list change it from the internal network to the PPTP Pool....this will assign PPTP connections with a 10.x.x.x address....your next step is to go into the packet filter rules and add the following two rules
From PPTP>>>any>>>>Internal Network>>>>allow..
and
From internal network>>>any>>>>PPTP Pool>>>>allow
this will solve the DHCP conflict and allow the PPTP clients to access resources as before
The other option is to give your PPTP setup the option of using a specified range of IP addresses through a defined network which is a subset of your internal network IP addresses (for example, if your network is 192.168.1.xxx then give PPTP only 192.168.1.200-255).
Alternatively, what if you use ASL as your DHCP server too? Does it still give duplicate addresses? I haven't tried this but I doubt it would. . .
