RE: VPN connection not passing the password auth' stage.

Dear Leythos:
Thank you for your useful suggestions.
Generally speaking, The Generic Route Encapsulation (GRE) protocol is used
in conjunction with Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) to create
virtual private networks (VPNs) between clients or between clients and
servers.
One thing I want to clarify is that GRE protocol is based on Internet
Protocol (IP) other than TCP/UDP, so if we forward TCP/UDP 47 from the
router to the SBS box, we may still not able to establish the VPN tunnel.
Here is a detailed article about GRE Protocol 47 Packet description and use.
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;[LN];241251
We can also use PPTP Ping utility to determine whether any hardware router
or firewall is blocking GRE Protocol 47. If server side can receive the GRE
packet, it will come to the conclusion that the hardware router support
inbound PPTP session.
Have a nice day! :)
Best Regards
Edward Tian(MSFT)

| Edward,
|
| Please update your scripted response to include the following:
|
| Many NAT Routers that do not properly support inbound PPTP can be made
| to support it by Port Forwarding TCP, UDP, or Both TCP/UDP 47 to the
| server.
|
| Some vendors suggest TCP other suggest TCP/UDP, and some vendors suggest
| different setups based on the firmware version.
|
| If GRE fails and you have a simple NAT router, try forwarding port 47
| (as shown above) to the server and attempting the PPTP connection again.
| If the combinations of "TCP" then "UDP" then "TCP/UDP" fail, then your
| router will not work for inbound PPTP sessions.
