    Well, I am not really a Linux user, just forced by circumstances to
    get a Linux box operational for development and I need to get PPTP VPN

    After doing su - I was able to run modprobe and it reported success.

    I hoped for the best and just continued and the packages seemed to be
    installed.

    I backtracked to a previous thread and found out how to import keys
    and after that I could do yum update yum and now I am fine... :-)
