    That the command "modprobe" is not in the user's $PATH. It really has
    been beaten to death here on the list, the discussion about "su" versus
    "su -".

    See above and "man su" for login.

    A warning is not an error. The rpm install warned you about not knowing
    the GPG key the RPM is signed with. Run "rpm -qi pptp" and you'll see
    that the package is installed.
