assuming that the pptp sever address is 192.168.x.y,
and eth0 on thre router is in the same LAN an the pptp server,
and serial0 is connected to the ISP you should apply 2 access-lists 
on the cisco router.(protocol 47 is gre and where it says gre you 
may substitute with 47)

ip access-list extended 101
  permit gre any host 192.168.x.y 
  permit tcp any host 192.168.x.y eq 1723
  deny ip any any

ip access-list extended 102
  permit gre host 192.168.x.y any
  permit tcp host 192.168.x.y any eq 1723

interface ethernet 0
  ip address 192.168.a.b 255.255.255.0
  ip access-group 101 out
  
interface Serial 0
  ............
  ip access group 102 out
