    When APF run's i keep on getting stuck in "Verifiyng Username and Password..." and then i get a ERROR 619.
    (APF installed on the server that has pptpd)..

    I opened ports 47 and 1723, but nothing seems to help, when i shutdown apf firewall pptpd works like a charm..

    Help :\

      I can't use another firewall right now, becuase i have lot's of scripts based on APF Firewall ( http://www.rfxnetworks.com/apf.php ).

      APF is based on Iptables, lots and lots of rules for Iptables.. There must be a way to make them work together.. :\

      The control port for PPTP is indeed TCP 1723 but the TCP 47 port is incorrect.

      To allow PPTP you need to open protocol 47 a.k.a. GRE (Generic Route Encapsulation). Your firewall may or may not be able to do this. You could always switch to fwbuilder if it doesn't (http://www.fwbuilder.org/)
