Almost OT but please help... (PPTP, Sonicwall, M1122, ADSL)

Hi there people, I have been experimenting with using a Sonicwall
Tele3/10 connected to an M1122 in PPTP mode (to bring the Public IP to
the Wan port of the Sonicwall) and all it basically going as expected...

I can now though, NOT connect to a PPTP vpn that I previous could (I
checked from another site, server's up)... Sonicwall say it should work,
and sure enough, there's nothing in the logs about 1723 being dropped,
and GRE is automatically passed through with 1723...

I DO though get a funny line in the logs about something being dropped
between the M1122 and Sonicwall on the non PPTP addresses.

08/15/2003 23:02:31.176 ICMP packet dropped 192.168.98.1, 3, WAN
192.168.98.2, 1, LAN Dest Unreachable, Code: 1

Strange. I thought maybe someone might have seen this before... The PPTP
between the Sonicwall and the M1122 is neat, but I am close to
suspecting that perhaps the encapsulation isn't quite transparent enough
for really sensitive protocols. :-(

Cheers - Neil G
