Re: Problem to start IPSec Service

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Thank you allan.

I need IPSec Sevice to use it for a L2TP IPSec VPN connection. I installed
SP2 and also kb907865. Event viewer shows me this:
-----------------
Event Type: Error
Event Source: Service Control Manager
Event Category: None
Event ID: 7023
Date: 10/7/2007
Time: 3:17:48 PM
User: N/A
Computer: GALAXY
Description:
The IPSEC Services service terminated with the following error:
An invalid argument was supplied.

For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
-----------------

Which is not useful. IPv6 is not install on my computer. Shall I install it?

I am also using Comodo anti virus, but when trying to start the IPSec
service, I exit Comodo.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Mehrdad

Hi all,

I hope i put the question in the correct group!

I am trying to start the IPSEC service on my Windows XP Pro computer, but
I
get this error message:
-------------------------
Could not start the IPSEC Services service on Local Computer.
Error 10022: An invalid argument was supplied.
-------------------------
I also added the OperationMode key in the registry and set its value to 0
(permit), but I still have the same problem. Any help?

Thank you,
Mehrdad

Hello , Mehrdad :
First of all, why do you believe you need the IPSEC service enabled? Is it
for a security reason? Do you have SP2 installed? Have you tried looking
at the Event Viewer for more information? It may ask you to install a
"snap-in". Finally, I was just wondering whether you have the ipv6 stack
installed. Post back with any additional relevent information you can
supply.
