And another question,

Does your firewall/router at *work* support pptp pass through? If it
does not do this properly then you will experience the problem you seem
to be having after the login.

Hehe, I asked this question too. But, as it turns out, you can enable
Windows XP Pro to accept incoming VPN connections using the network
wizard.  You learn something new every day :)
So, my question is this: have you run the network connection wizard to
set this up?

Um - to ask a stupid question... What VPN server are you using? I don't
think XP Pro or home have a VPN server included... 
So it might not be authenticating becuase there is no server at the
other end.

IPSec is more standards-oriented, secure and more powerful.
If you wish to have one PC VPN'ing into work then I would recommend
simply using a IPSec client and personal firewall on that machine.  If
you want your whole home network to be visible from work I would
recommend either installing a firewall with IPsec site-to-site
functionality behind your ADSL router, or building a *hardened* linux
box and using the freely available IPSec client on it.
Of course, it all depends on how much access you want to your work
network from home, what existing security infrastructure your work has,
how much your work are willing to compromise the security of their
network, and how much money you or your work want to spend. :-)
