Ok, so PPTP roadwarrioring works fine, however due to some stink at my school I have to get L2TP working instead.
I've followed the instructions in the L2TP roadwarrior doc on astaro's website, replacing the windows client setup info with that needed for OS X.
I don't have a DNAT or SNAT or NAT set up for this because I didn't see anything about that in the VPN setup doc, and if I'm supposed to then I don't know the settings.
I don't have any packet filter rules set up for this for the same reason ... not in the doc, and again if I'm supposed to I have no idea what the settings are.
When I set the local endpoint to my DMZ, (not my WAN/External), I can open a successful L2TP connection from the mac as long as I'm adressing it from inside the DMZ already. So this is a useless success other than to prove the client works.
When I change the local endpoint to be my external/real/WAN address, I can't get a successful connection from the mac no matter where I am, either outside or inside the firewall.
Can someone give some pointers on what to do that isn't covered in this stupid doc to make it work?

Forgot to mention that I do have a Masq for anything in my DMZ to appear as my WAN address.
