vpn and nat

[Nicolas Pierri]

I have

Location 1
1 server doing NAt with "routing and remote access"
1 pc with windows XP sp2
no firewall

Location 2
1 server with windows 2003


I want to connect the workstation from location1 to the vpn server from
location 2

the problem is that the connection gives me an error 721

Ive read about port 1723 and gre 47 but as far as I know im not filtering
anything

how can I fix this?

do you have a router between these servers?

check to make sure your router supports PPTP passthgourh.
if your VPN server has an internal IP then forward any requests to the
routers ip on port 1723 to the internal ip of the VPN server.
