setting up a simple vpn connection

I'm trying to connect to the university library by vpn. On a windows client setting this up takes about a minute, but on FreeBSD this seems another story.

I installed net/pptpclient and created a ppp.conf:
Code: 
EUR:
 set authname "xxxx@eur.nl"
 set authkey "xxxxxxx"
 set timeout 0
 set ifaddr 0 0
 add vpn-eur-pptp.eur.nl HISADDR
 disable ipv6cp
It looks like it logs in, but after a minute or two it just exits. My messages log says:
Code:

What am I doing wrong here? I can't imagine it's so difficult to set up a simple vpn connection.

Thanks and regards,
Marco
