BCP PPTP bridge DHCP problem

RouterOS General
1

I have setup BCP PPTP tunnel between my MT at home and MT at work (both fw 6.38.1).

http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:BCP_bridging_(PPP_tunnel_bridging)

Everything is setup exactly as in tutorial and client connects to server perfectly. On my client side on one of the ports I have my laptop connected. The port is in the same bridge as the PPTP client.

When I plug the laptop on my MT I can see this message on the server side MT:

server-lan offering lease 192.168.XX.XX for XX:XX:XX:XX:XX without success.

So the VPN tunnel is working and I am on the same bridge as the bridge at work but the DHCP server on MT at work fails to deliver the offered DHCP address to my laptop.

Any idea why?

I have chosen a different approach. First I setup classic PPTP connection and then EoIP tunnel over it. And bridge with my entire LAN on one side and bridge only specific ports on another side. Laptop in on of the specific ports now successfuly gets IP over DHCP set on the bridge on another side.
