Title:
vpn fails to connect when server requires only 128 bit encryption

Bug description:
Binary package hint: network-manager-pptp
Everything worked fine in 8.10 and before. In 9.04 it fails. The
server (U of Illinois) I connect to wants you to set 128 bit
encryption and disable the 40 bit. I worked around the problem by
replacing the gconf file,
~/.gconf/system/networking/connections/1/connection/%gconf.xml with a
similar one from another machine (This other machine worked fine after
the upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04). It seems the problem appears only when
you edit the vpn-connection using 9.04. The difference between the two
files is an extra line that seems partially redundant.
configured in 9.04 (does not work):
... <entry name="require-mppe-128" mtime="1241379158" type="string"> ...
... <entry name="require-mppe" mtime="1241379158" type="string"> ...
configured in 8.10 (works in 9.04):
... <entry name="require-mppe-128" mtime="1241379158" type="string"> ...
Regarrds.
