I've tried to switch off firewalling for restarting the connection and
it made no difference.
I had the firewall in place when the connection leaving the call manager
broke up, though.
I'm using shorewall and have configured the firewall according it's
documentation including modifications for a pptp internet connection.
However, are there any rules i should have in the firewall?

here it is:
# ps aux | grep pptp
root     15631  0.0  0.3  1556  596 ?        S    12:22   0:00 pptp: call 
manager for 10.0.0.138
# strace -p 15631
Process 15631 attached - interrupt to quit
futex(0x40150cec, FUTEX_WAIT, 2, NULL <unfinished ...>
### nothing more until i press CTRL-C: ###
Process 15631 detached
