[pptp-server] VPN via modem connection

[Pascal Fremaux]

Could be a problem I encountered before with Win98SE.
You've got to desinstall PPTP and to reinstall it. The tips is that you
must do that from the install box (where you set what you
install/desinstall fron W98).  Config Panel / Add Suppress Programs /
Windows install or something like that. Suppress the component PPTP(,
reboot,) and do the same to reinstall it.
It's a bug that must be referenced somewhere on Microsoft KB.
