In order to use the resources of my library, I was hoping to connect to  
it's VPN. The online guide provided is at  
http://www.itservices.ubc.ca/support/service/vpn.html

I also found a diary entry http://www.freebsddiary.org/pptp.php

I followed the diary pretty much exactly using the general linux guide on  
the ubc.ca website as a guide and the connection failed. the /var/log/ppp  
is:

Nov 14 08:59:17 ross ppp[2125]: Phase: Using interface: tun0

I'm guessing that the problem has something to do with the requirement of  
mppe128 or mppe-stateless. Browsing the mailing list archive and the  
internet failed to help me. Can somebody out there help please?

Thanks
