That the command "modprobe" is not in the user's $PATH. It really has
been beaten to death here on the list, the discussion about "su" versus
"su -".

See above and "man su" for login.

A warning is not an error. The rpm install warned you about not knowing
the GPG key the RPM is signed with. Run "rpm -qi pptp" and you'll see
that the package is installed.
