Thanks, Paul! I tried both ways- with the pptp at the beggining, and
with it in the middle (as per your example). In the place of MYDOMAIN
I put the IP address for the university. However, now I can't even
authenticate the password:
Remote message: Password validation failure
PAP authentication failed
Modem hangup

I tried like this:
# Secrets for authentication using CHAP
# client	server	secret			IP addresses
132.68.254.109\\sdotan        PPTP                    password

And like this:
# Secrets for authentication using CHAP
# client	server	secret			IP addresses
PPTP        132.68.254.109\\sdotan                    password

I also talked to one of the people at the university and he said that
if I can't connect via pptp then I could via l2tp. I'm googling for
that now, but in any case I'd like to get this working. Thanks.
