Hello everyone,
One of the users in my office needs to connect to a PPTP VPN outside of our office. He is trying to access this VPN from behind our checkpoint firewall. Initially there was no connection between the sites, but then I created a rule allowing outbound and inbound PPTP connections from any to our network and from our network to any.
After I opened that up, the connection starts to go through, but then hangs up when it's trying to verify the username and password. After checking the logs, I can see that our outbound request is being allowed through, but I never see any sort of inbound connection. It's like it's being blocked, but I don't see any dropped packets from the VPN's IP address.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've tried just about everything I can think of, and I still can't get the connection to go through. Thanks!
