Also, from: http://www.wlug.org.nz/PPTP

"For firewalling interests. PPTP uses GRE packets
(protol 47) and a TCP connection on port 1723 for
control. Most FireWall/NAT implementations don't
understand the GRE connection identifier and thus will
only support one PPTP connection, to a single PPTP
server, when your connection is over NAT. Linux 2.4
doesn't seem to have this problem."

So install pptp, get it working, then firewall out all
traffic apart from connections to 1723 from wi0,
doesn't seem too hard (famous last words) apart from
allowing GRE packets through the firewall...
