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

Thanks Al,

I can't get my srv & clnt to give your results ...
But now I read here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/818043

Excerpt: By default, Windows XP SP2 no longer supports IPsec NAT-T security
associations to servers that are located behind a network address translator.
Therefore, if your virtual private network (VPN) server is behind a network
address translator, by default, a Windows XP SP2-based VPN client cannot make
a L2TP/IPsec connection to the VPN server. This scenario includes a VPN
server that is running Microsoft Windows Server 2003.

Does this mean that the microsoft VPN client can't connect to a Win XP that
is behind a router with nat (as mine is?

When I run pptpsrv it says:
Error 10048 binding socket:
Created socket for GRE protocol test
LIstening on PROTOCOL 47 for incoming GRE packets ...
----
and running pptpcntl it says (a synopsis):
its created the socket & successfully send the data,
..what's received - is blank
and it says total GRE packets sent = 5
closing down, goodbye.
----

Is this what's expected?
