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



That's what I meant. The client has some issue. I don't know of any service
that would be listening. The VPN doesn't grab the port until you start the
connection. Do the netstat command on the client to see what is holding the
port.

Hi Scott,

no, this is not the problem I believe: the service listening on the TCP
port 1723 is started on the client side, not on the win2003 server
side...
or there's may be something I don't know...
does the client need to listen on port 1723 at some point of the
negociation ?
AFAIK, the client connects on port 1723 on the server, right ? so why
would a service listening on port 1723 on the client side be a problem.

Regards,
Olivier.

I would imagine that that service is holding the port hostage basically
and
not letting the VPN connection use it. This is not uncommon.

hi,

thank you for your answers.

well I actually do know which service listens on port 1723.
What I don't get is why does the VPN connection to the win2003 server
fails if the service listening on port 1723 is started on the winXP
client ?

Thank you,
regards,
Olivier.
