 Excuse me, but whether should it work ?
 Whether VPN's exist to provide secure access to all network behind a
 vpn-gateway or i am in a big mistake?
 How you can establish a connection with specific host if it is behind a NAT.
 
 I think we both have to reread some books about VPNs :)

 > >Description:
 > As recently posted on freebsd-current, with subject 'PPTP VPN using MPD
 behind NAT help needed'. NATD does not seem to work when trying to
 estabilish a remote PPTP VPN connection. This is regardless of the
 'redirect_proto' passed to natd. All detailed information can be found in
 the mailing list email. Have switched to PF nat since, and VPN connections
 resumed to work.
