Thanks for the info on the internal interface. If there is some other
problem, then I have not been successful at finding it.

I am aware of the issues of connecting to a server on a private network. I
am connecting to the public IP and have opened 1723 to go through the
firewall. This part seems to be working as it is trying to verify the user
name and password before it errors out.

Any additonal info would be great!
