I am new to Linux and I am trying to learn as much as possible. I have installed Ubuntu 13.0.4 and selected basic server, I am now trying to setup VPN to access my files from anywhere. However getting errors when disabling encryption. The steps I am following is below from one of the member here:

I am getting errors on doing the steps below:

refuse-pap
refuse-chap
refuse-mschap

Error message: access denied, even though I am logged on as root.

Any help will be much appreciated!

These are no commands to execute them in terminal. At the step 3 it says clear:

3: Edit /etc/ppp/pptpd-options. Comment out these lines, if you want this to work universally on all OSes:

refuse-pap
refuse-chap
refuse-mschap

You can comment this line if you want to disable encryption: require-mppe-128

So, open /etc/ppp/pptpd-options file with root privileges, using the following command:

sudo -i gedit /etc/ppp/pptpd-options

and comment those lines by adding a hash (#) character in front of each one. When you finish, save the file and clse it.
