PPTP Passthrough Issues

Hi all,

I'm  having issues establishing PPTP sessions through my wireless network  out to a remote PPTP server. Traffic leaves the network ok, I can verify this showing the traffic being translated on the router from my internal subnet to the public address of the outside interface tcp port 1723. But I cannot see traffic returning. Remote admin team have verified that they can see the requests coming in but their error logs show:

"A connection between the VPN server and the VPN client x.x.x.x has been established, but the VPN connection cannot be completed. The most common cause for this is that a firewall or router between the VPN server and the VPN client is not configured to allow Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) packets (protocol 47)."

This is the exact same message received client side, and it is not very helpful.

The topology of the network is as follows:

WAN Router |----| ASA |----| Layer 3 Switch |----| Controller

ASA has no NAT configured, it is just sat inline at the moment (awaiting swapout). Two inbound access rules have been created though:

access-list outside_access_in extended permit gre any any

access-list outside_access_in extended permit ip any any

I think that the  issue is at the remote end, as I haven't been able to see any traffic hit my ACL for permitting GRE traffic, but would appreciate any feedback ref my  config (10.201.24-28.x range is wlan subnet):
