Why not use VPN Client for your home users, more secure than PPTP, anyway here are the configuration examples for both PPTP and VPN Client access:

PIX and PPTP configuration:

I have seen PPTP even in PIX 501 series so i dont see some problem in configuring the same in PIX 506E model.

do find the link which talks about enabling PPTP in PIX firewall..

vpdn group PPTPVPN client configuration address local PPTP

vpdn group PPTPVPN client configuration dns *.*.*.*

vpdn group PPTPVPN pptp echo 60

vpdn group PPTPVPN client authentication local

vpdn username test password *********
