Are you on a Windows 2000 AD domain? If so, look at MSKB article Q227747 - it may be of help. If not, try these two other articles that have to do with 128-bit v. 40-bit encryption and see if they seem to apply: Q174474 and Q169895. Hope this helps!

Check the filter settings on your external nic. Try it with Enable PPTP Filtering set, but do not check Enable Security.

I have a setup very similar to yours. I can connect with a Win2000 client, could not connect with Win95 client. I got the same message as you, but I got around it, I think it had to do with the filter settings.

I actually find the solution myself by uninstalling the networking components and reinstalling, after that everything started to work just fine. Thanks
