Two machines at home trying to connect to a new VPN (SBS connection
manager). Both had trouble, but reconfigured router, and now one works,
other doesn't.
Machine that doesn't connect returns Error 721. All S/W firewalls were
disabled. Thought error was perhaps due to wireless connection, but have
ruled that out. However, since other machine easily connects via same
router, should not be a router problem, right?
Furthermore, when I use "telnet <server> 1723" I can get telnet connection
on the working machine and on old Win2K that I brought out of mothballs to
simply test connectivity. Problem machine returns "could not open connection
to the host, on port 1723: connect failed"
Am now at a loss of where to turn. Have thought of reinstalling TCP/IP, but
am wary to do so.
Any thoughts?
Yea, how about telling us what router you are using?
Most of those cheap NAT routers, mistakenly called firewalls by vendors,
don't support multiple PPTP VPN tunnels and most don't support multiple
VPN PPTP tunnels to the same network at the same time from the same
location.
721 is almost always a GRE issue - and with you trying to do two PPTP to
the same server from the same network I can just about guess that it's the
cheap router.
