Sorry, I don't have a solution to "simply" block VPN access from a specific
machine. Methods exist but the only ones I know of aren't simple.
Monitoring through the RRAS VPN log files is simple though.
Open Routing and Remote Access from the Admin tools. Select the Remote
Access logging. Double click the logfile. On the logfile properties window,
select the logfile tab, select IAS format and your preferences for logfile
maintnenace. On the "settings" tab, select all three check boxes.
You'll find the resultant csv log files in %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\logfiles
named INxxxxx.log, by default C:\windows\system32\logfiles.
Confronted by 'evidence' that the tutor is violating policy and your ability
to monitor compliance may be enough to have everyone play by the rules.
