The only exception to this is if you have some PPTP/IPSec software that uses
UDP tunnelling. I know that Cisco have this capability, and I think the FW-1
software as well. Because of all these issues soming up with 'normal' PPTP
software not working through a NAT devive more and more vendors are offering
a UDP transport that wraps up the encrypted tunneling packet so that it will
make it through NAT devices.
