Default Major PPTP Issues

I have my Vista 5728 installation running a PPTP connection to an Astaro
firewall/VPN Endpoint. Twice now this connection via PPTP after an hour or
so has completely crashed my firewall.

The Astaro box is running a secure (locked down) version of Linux with
integrated intrusion prevention, etc.

What has changed with PPTP in Vista, did not seem to have these issues with
Windows XP SP2.

Any pointers anybody?

Thanks

Turns out to be a firewall bug and just a coincidence that it crashed with
Vista.....
