Firmware upgrade breaks PPTP?

We have two Cisco 3005s that I recently tried to upgrade to the latest
firmware (4.1.7). The first one went just fine. The second one seemed
to go OK, but users had problems. Anyone making a PPTP connection could
log in, but no traffic seemed to be flowing (bytes transmitted seemed
rather low, especially compared to bytes received). I went back to the
old version (actually, the old version was 3.6.7 and the closest I
could get my hands on was 3.6.8), and everything was happy again. Where
might the different be? As far as I know, the two concentrators are the
same model, with very similar configs.

This seems like it may be related to another problem we're having with
a sister company. Everything seems OK, except for PPTP, which doesn't
seem to work (it's almost as if something's blocked somewhere, but as
far as I know, there's no packet filtering in the way).

Thanks!

Hey Steve. We had the same problem at my company. After we upgraded to 4.1.7
our clients experienced the exact same problem. We downgraded to
4.1.5.Rel-k9.bin and the problem went away. I'll wait and let Cisco fix that
issue before I upgrade the VPN 3005 again. Corbin.
