VPN sbs2008

[josh2009]

hello,

I cannot establish a vpn connection to an sbs2008 box from a remote xp client. I get error 721.

I can connect via a pc on the lan ok. From the xp support tools, i ran pptpsrv.exe on a lan PC and pptpsrv.exe on a remote PC and connects ok.

Any help appreciated.

Did you open the ports on your firewall?

Ports Needed for PPTP VPN
- TCP Port 1723
- UDP Port 500

Ports Needed for L2TP VPN
- TCP Port 1701
- UDP Port 500

Ports Needed for IPSec/ESP
- UDP Port 500



I hope that helps.

Regards,

Mark
