You want to initiate the tunnel from within the jail? I think that's not possible not only for pptp, but for all interface types inside a jail(perhaps I am wrong, have no jail experience, but I think that's an essential jail feature(not able to mess up with network interfaces)). > Anyway.

I can use my pptp address from within a jail, of course the tunnel is already up and visible to the base system. You can also get the "secondary IP address effect" for your jail using a loopback interface. For example: ng0 1.2.3.4 <-> 5.6.7.8 lo1 9.10.11.12 9.10.11.12 would also be your jail address, totally unrelated to the tunnel. I am not sure what you are looking for. Perhaps you should explain a bit further.
