I upgraded a server from 7.0 to 7.2 and now VPN doesn't work. I believe the issue is a file is missing.
Here is a listing of a server that works:
[root@pluto ~]# uname -r
2.6.9-55.0.9.ELsmp
[root@pluto ~]# rpm -qa |grep ppp
kmod-ppp-1.0.2-2.2.6.9_55.0.12.EL
kmod-ppp-smp-1.0.2-2.2.6.9_55.0.12.EL
ppp-2.4.4-1.3.el4.sme
rp-pppoe-3.5-22.2.RHEL4.1
Here is the listing from the server I am having problems with:
[root@imsintapp ~]# uname -r
2.6.9-55.0.12.ELsmp
[root@imsintapp ~]# rpm -qa |grep ppp
kmod-ppp-1.0.2-2.2.6.9_55.0.12.EL
rp-pppoe-3.5-22.2.RHEL4.1
ppp-2.4.4-1.3.el4.sme
The file "kmod-ppp-smp-1.0.2-2.2.6.9_55.0.12.EL" is missing from the problem server. What is the best way to get this file on the server. Would you agree that this is probably the problem?

I'm not sure if it is a bug. I think I did the update when the repos were not in sync.

If the kernel is updated and the kmods are not then it may be a bug. Always report anything you "think might be a bug" to the bug tracker. In my eyes it is a bug but I don't think it is a fixable one as it really involves a timing issue with the mirrors.
I have posted a bug report to see if it can be resolved in the future:
http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3521
Please follow up there.
In the meantime, you can fetch the required kmods by running the update again. You may need to clean the yum cache first:
yum clean all
yum update
