Still does not work in feisty here. Everything is configured properly but hangs 
in pptpconfig.
Workaround for the desperate:
You can start the connection manually with "pon <name>" after you configured it 
in pptpconfig.
This should create an additional interface like "ppp1". You can check with 
"ifconfig".
I have written this script:

#!/bin/sh
echo Connecting...
sudo pon myoffice
echo Waiting 10 seconds...
sleep 10
echo Adding routes...
sudo route add -net 192.168.150.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev ppp1
sudo route add -net 192.168.3.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev ppp1
echo Changing nameserver...
sudo sh -c "echo 'nameserver 192.168.150.6' > /etc/resolv.conf"
echo OK

IMPORTANT: You need to save you current nameservers in /etc/resolv.conf
as /etc/resolv.good before and use the following script to close the
connection again:

#!/bin/sh
sudo cp /etc/resolv.good /etc/resolv.conf
sudo poff myoffice

Not very comfortable, but the only way to get a connection right now in
feisty. KVpnc doesnt work either. I suppose for the same reasons. I even
tried the somewhat new network-manager which didnt find any interface at
all.
