Dear All,

I am trying to setup a VPN on Windows 2003 server, when connecting I am facing with the following error message:

error 781: the encryption attempt failed because no valid certificate was found

I need advise..

Thanks & Regards

Winanjaya
 
Can you ping the VPN server with no problems?

- Event ID 20111, Error 792 or Error 781 When Establishing an L2TP/IPSec Connection


The link below suggests changing the VPN from L2TP/IPSec to PPTP, which doesn't require a certificate. Scroll down the page until you find the link for Error 781 and click it to take you to the steps to configure this.

- Error 781 - Encryption Failed
