VPN pptp connection thru a PIX 506 and how to clear all configuratioin 1

[sillyVM]

I am using a windows xp machine, trying to connect to a VPN PPTP server outside. How do I configure my firewall to allow this connection to be made? Thank you.


Also, how do I clear all my configurations, the cisco box I bought is a used one. I would like to clear all the other rules in there.

Thank you.

Thanks, I think this is the line I've been missing

access-list acl-out permit gre host 192.168.201.25 host 192.168.201.5


Props.

How did you find this article? I was searching support document up and down and never found this one. Why isn't this in the PIX 506 document?

I had it saved from a previous search. I wind up having to solve a lot of problems, so I keep all the links and support docs I find. I generally use google.

Yes, I usually use google to find my documentation on Cisco's site as it does a better job.
