PPTP Change

[Russell Suter <rsuter mxlogic com>]

All,

I have my NetworkManager-pptp working now but I had to make one change 
in the source get it to authenticate.  We use mschapv2 at my workplace 
and when the credentials were being passed to the server, it was 
failing.  The problem was that it was passing the username as 
DOMAIN\\USERNAME which doesn't work.  After a bit of playing with 
wireshark, I was able to deduce the username should be sent 
DOMAIN\USERNAME.  When I changed it, it worked.

Now, I know almost nothing about this stuff so I suspect this isn't the 
best solution since I'm sure other people are using it this way. But, 
I'm providing the patch for what I did to make it work for me in hopes 
that someone more knowledgeable can come up with a better solution.
