[pptp-server] Problem connecting over Dialup connection

Have installed PPTPD.  The problem I am experiencing is that from cable 
modems on the internet, there is no problem using Win98_SE to create the 
PPTP tunnel into the company.  The VPN comes up great from any and all 
employees who have a cable modem.

When trying users who have regular Dial-up connections we all get an error 
from the VPN connection #645.

Since the Cable modems work I am assuming my configuration (PPPD, 
chap-secrets, etc. etc. is properly done).  I have played with the MTU and 
MRU settings in the Options file but no values produce a connection with the 
#645 error.

Here is the PPPD Options file and the debug info. from the PPTPD and Kernel:
