I've got a faculty member's laptop that suddenly cannot connect to our
Windows 2003 Server running VPN.

It connects, authenticates, then gives the error :

Error 720: A connection to the remote computer could not be established

The VPN server is working ok, other systems can connect to it.

The laptop connects correctly to the domain here, no problems, Web, Email
work fine, DNS is good, I can ping the server. This happens whether I use the
ethernet r wireless networking connection.

I've read:

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=314076
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=810979
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=811259

None seem to apply.

I've done

netsh reset ip

netsh reset winsock catalog

without effect.

Any more ideas?


netsg

Click to expand...

I did a repair reinstall of Windows XP and that seems to have fixed it.
