Re: Can't login Win XP to XP via VPN

Hi Al, thanks for your fast response,

I'm not sure I understand your question correctly, but ....
There are several user accounts defined on the host - and I can login with
their crentials (when at the host).
When I do the same thing remotely, they fail.

PS - When I defined the VPN I DID select each user as being allowed to login
via the VPN,

Its failing at the VPN login stage? If so did you define a user or users?

Hi,
I have configured an incoming VPN on the (host) PC (running Win XP)
And on the remote PC (also running XP) I have used the wizard to setup a
VPN
connection.

When I start the connection, I get asked for UserIS and password, but when
I
enter a valid combination (ie one that works when entered directing on the
host) it gets rejected.

Do I have to do anything else to allow remote login?

Thanks ... Barry
