Changing the VPN incoming Port

[Andrey S]

Hello!

Is there a way to change the incoming port of the VPN (on the server side)?

Thanks,

Andrey

Hi Andrey,

Can you please tell what "change the incoming port" means with an example.
I would be able to help you better with that info.

Hi Andrey,

Itmeans changing the port from 3389 to something else. Like 3390 or 80.
Useful if you have more then one client behind the router. Example. I have
two machines behind a router. So, I changed one to listen on port 3390. I
then connect by using public_IPort ( 24.xxx.xxx.xxx:3390 )

I think with VPN's (PPTP-based), you are stuck with TCP 1723... I
don't think you can change the listening or the "sending" port for the
VPN connection.

Sorry. Somehow I completely missed the VPN part. My advi9ce was for
Remote Desktop.
