Re: VPN Error 778

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

In RRAS, check your method of authentication per the post below. Make sure
it's not set to "Radius".

Merv, Jim,

Thanks again. Removed the WINS entry on both NICS (not even sure how it
got
there). Went to the external NIC router and tried to VPN in and got the
same
778 error. Regarding the firewall question, I'm running ISA Server 2004
and
all computers on the network are running the firewall client. The XPSP2
built
in firewall is disabled.

Yep. Unless it's a typo, the WINS entry is wrong on both NICs. :-)

Don, is the SBS server handling the DHCP service for the network? If
not,
turn off DHCP service on other device (probably the Access point) and
re-run
CEICW to let SBS handle DHCP.

Then plug a laptop into a free port on the router, give it a static IP
address in the 192.168.15.x range and a gateway of the router
(192.168.15.1)
and then try to VPN into the SBS server. This will simulate VPNing in
from
an external source while taking the router out of the equation.

The WINS is wrong on the external nic. It should either be blank or
pointed to the internal ip of the server nic.

I have not followed the thread to well. Is there any mention of
Windows Firewall or any third party antivirus blocking stuff?

Correct, PPTP through to the SBS Server and yes using "Typical"
with
require
data encryption.

I assume your using PPTP through to the SBS server and not
terminating
the
VPN at your router. In the VPN connectoid, under the Security
(tab),
in
Security Options, are you using "Typical" with require data

it
still
didn't work.

I've
