Thought I would be able to have both pppoe auth & pptp on the outside
interface of my 501 running 6.3(5)

But I get the following msg

Can not enable vpdn on the same interface as
PPPoE.

Any way around this?

No.

PPPoE and PPTP both require forms of GRE. In order to use both
together, the GRE part of PPTP would have to be encapsulated
within the GRE part of PPPoE, which is more complicated than
PIX 6 is willing to get into.

The restriction is documented, but the reference site isn't
coming up at the moment so I can't post a URL right now.

Yep from my google research looks like it can't be done. So I managed to
setup IPSEC using the cisco VPN client.

Thanks I really appreciate all of your help (:
