Ok, I'll bite, since you seem completely incapable of using a 
search engine, you get a 1-time pass.  After this, you can
either learn how to use a search engine, or not be rude.

It was not "left out" at all.  It's an old piece of software that's
no longer used.  Had you taken the time to search a bit, you'd see
clearly that this module is only used with 2.0 and 2.2 kernels.  
Why does it appear in RH 7.0?  Install RH 7.0, do a uname -a and
answer your own question.  Since PPTP is GRE+udp/1723, configure
your iptables rules to account for ip proto 47 (the GRE tunnel)
and udp/1723 (the control channel).  If you need to support multiple
PPTP tunnels from behind the same firewall and are using NAT, you'll
need to track the connections with ip_conntrack.  The ip_gre module
has nothing to do with filtering, rather it provides the GRE protocol
for your use.

YOU may find it degrading to draw a network diagram, but you know what?
Too bad.  How else are we to be sure that you're trying to not do 
something silly/impossible?  A diagram removes all ambiguity from 
the problem description.  If you feel the need to regress to crayons,
that's up to you, but many of us would use a tool like Dia or even Visio
to do this.

Well pucker up, big boy.  Look, it's not about kissing anyone's butt.
It's about demonstrating a reasonable effort before asking for help,
and not simply demanding solutions to your problems.  You want to 
talk to a group of people that is obligated to solve your problems?
That costs money - in the form of a support contract.
