error 645 and pptp

Hi

I get this error on a win98 computer trying to pptp to a comany firewall..
all other os's are able to connect without any problems. I've installed the
vpn adapter and I'm unable to find anything on the internet to help
troubleshoot this error. Any help would be appreciated

Thanks,
ray

Error 645: Internal authentication error (also re: error 913), or Dial-Up
Networking could not complete the connection to the server.
Resolutions:
1) uncheck require encrypted password under the Server Types tab.
2) Make sure you are entering your correct username and password when
connecting.
3) Uninstall and reinstall the Dial Up adapter.
4) Refer to error 619 resolution - add the vpn to the appropriate group

Error 619: The port was disconnected (or Error 645, Dial-Up Networking could
not complete the connection to the server and Error 930, The authentication
server did not respond to authentication requests in a timely fashion. The
Event Viewer shows: Event id: 20073, Description: The following error
occurred in the Point to Point Protocol module on port: port number,
UserName: user name. The authentication server did not respond to
authentication requests in a timely fashion). When using VPN to access a
remote network, W2K clients mat get above errors but not win9x and ME
clients. This issue occurs because the VPN server hasn't registered in
Active Directory.

Error 913: A Remote Access Client attempted to connect over a port that was
reserved for Routers only (also re: Error 629 and 645). The event viewer may
also generate the following event:

Resolutions:
1) Enable Remote access connections. To do this, go to Routing and Remote
Access administrative tool>Ports>Properties, click the appropriate port
(L2TP, Modem, PPTP, LPT1, and so on), and then click Configure, and then
check the Remote access connections (inbound only).
2) Double-click the "Incoming Connections" icon on network connections
folder and make sure "Allow VPN Connections" is enabled.

I've tried what you suggested and I'm still having the same problem
