allocate specific range of IPs to incoming pptp on 2003 ?

[scott]

Hi,

I installed 2003 server last week and configured pptp for remote access. My
previous 2000 server allowed me to configure the IP range allocated to
client connections but I cant figure out how to do this on 2003 without
using the setup wizard (i.e couldn't use the setup wizard when configuring
as i need to use the custom option).

So at the moment the IPs allocated to my incoming connections dont match my
LAN subnet. Can someone explain to me how to allocate/reserve a specific IP
range for incoming pptp users on 2003 server standard ?

Thanks for your time
Scott

I am not sure about this issue. are you talking about static address pool? 2000 and 2003 are the same way to assign IP pool. check this page, How to setup VPN You will have two options, DHCP and Static address pool. How to schedule to connect and disconnect a VPN. You can use rasdial command plus scheduler. ...
