Hello,

my OpenBSD 3.7 box at home establishes a static pptp connection to my
companies vpn server.
From any client at home, I can ping any server in the company. But I
can't ping any client at home from the company.
I have to ping a client at work, from any client at home, in order to
access my clients at home from the company.
PF is not enabled on the box. It seems, that the vpn is static for
clients from outside, my home net.
I don't know pptp at all, but from your description, it seems the 
office router
does not (manage to) establish a connection, it only accepts them.

Either change the configuration of said router, configure your home machine to
keep the tunnel up at all times (no clue how that would be done, or even what
piece of software you're using...), or - the simplest - just start ping before
leaving. ;-)
The office router is a windows 2003 ras server. Isn't there something
like a keep alive in ppp?
Or just a cron controled ping to the other site?
