    Couple of things are possible. (Actually a lot of things)

    I would check your NPS (Network Policy Server). It could be that network is not accepting connections from L2TP so it defaults to PPTP.

    I would also try a pre-shared key from the RRAS and Client. Set up using RRAS and match the key on the client side. Then restrict the client from using PPTP using NPS.
