I am running a Cisco Pix 507 firewall. I have set up a VPN using PPTP to allow our users to access documents and email from home. I have the VPN working in that I can connect and access workstations inside of the network. The problem is that when I am connected to the VPN I am not able to access the internet or the email server which is located outside of the firewall. Here are some of the commands I enabled on the firewall:

-access-list nonat permit ip host 172.16.10.14 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0
-nat (inside) 0 access-list nonat
-nat (inside) 1 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
-ip local pool pptp-pool 192.168.10.1-192.168.10.10
-sysopt connection permit-pptp
-vpdn group 1 accept dialin pptp
-vpdn group 1 client configuration address local pptp-pool
-vpdn group 1 clien configuration dns 172.16.10.3
-vpdn group 1 pptp echo 60
-vpdn username xxxxx password xxxxx
-vpdn enable outside

Can anyone tell me what I might be missing, or another way to set it up so that I can have internet access throught the VPN.

This problem is not caused by the Pix, but the Microsoft vpn client. You should use a real vpn client that support Ipsec protocol.

The Microsoft's vpn client route all trafic over the tunnel ignoring the default routing table.
