poptop vpn server problem


I've just tried to install the poptop vnp server on my linux suse 9.1 pro system. I'm using basic config files delivered with the installation. I haven't changed anything (which causes probably the problem). Someone tried to connect to my vpn server, but he got the next message:

Error 741: The local computer does not support the required data encryption type.

Probably the server is causing this problem. I've copied the next part from the log: /var/log/messages :

Code:

Are there any other ways i can try to figure out what's going wrong (please explain in basic terms). Maybe someone can find something is this log?

Did you look here first?

pptpclient.sourceforge.net/howto-diagnosis.phtml

Try unchecking the "Require data encryption (disconnect if none)" box. It's located on the security tab of the connection properties. If it connects fine, then it's configured to not require MPPE encryption.
