Re: can't connect to vpn if a service listens on port 1723

Do you know what service is holding onto this port?

Hello,

I have a win2003 server with VPN service enabled, and I can
successfully connect to it from a winXP workstation.

However, there's a really strange thing I do not understand:
if a service listening on the port 1723 is started on the winXP
workstation (not the win2003 server of course), then it is not possible
to connect any more to the win2003 server (????) - an error is
returned... (800 or 721)

does someone know why. I really don't understand what can be the reason
explaining this behaviour.

Thanks in advance for any help

Regards,
Olivier.
