If you don't see any drops at your firewall then think about MTU size. Windows shares use large maximum segment sizes and are on of the first symptoms when you introduce a new VPN.
My MTU setting in /etc/ppp/options.pptpd is currently set to 1450. I wouldn't imagine that this is too low, but as this is my first VPN server, I'm open to suggestions. However, I believe this to be a problem with routing the appropriate data through the server.
