I have the same problem on our debian system (current testing squeeze).

The problem is that ppp can't assign to client an ip address:

[lns default]
...
assign ip = yes
ip range = 10.1.25.128-10.1.25.254
local ip = 10.1.25.1
...

But on the log file:
Jun 23 02:07:35 gnom xl2tpd[15553]: start_pppd: I'm running: 
Jun 23 02:07:35 gnom xl2tpd[15553]: "/usr/sbin/pppd" 
Jun 23 02:07:35 gnom xl2tpd[15553]: "passive"

Jun 23 02:07:35 gnom xl2tpd[15553]: "debug" 
Jun 23 02:07:35 gnom xl2tpd[15553]: "file" 
Jun 23 02:07:35 gnom xl2tpd[15553]: "/etc/ppp/ppp-options.xl2tpd" 
Jun 23 02:07:35 gnom xl2tpd[15553]: "/dev/pts/7" 


To remote side sends ip address 0.0.0.0. If i use a static ip at client
side, and enable ipcp-accept-remote option in ppp config file at
server side - all works fine.

gnom:~# dpkg -s xl2tpd
