Make sure you're loading all the necessary modules in the kernel (2.6.x)

/sbin/modprobe ip_conntrack/sbin/modprobe ip_gre/sbin/modprobe ip_conntrack_pptp
/sbin/modprobe ip_nat_pptp

Apparently there is some kind of corruption issue because the PPTP server will receive many unsupported protocol 0xXXXX and start rejecting the packets. 'tcpdump' on the network revealed the same thing and got lots of LCP prot-rej. It's not even a firewall dropping packet or routing problem packet not reaching the PPTP server.
