VPN Not authenticating

[Jeff]

I have set up a VPN connection to our network. The VPN
server sits on an ISA server and is not a domain
controller. If I VPN in with my user name and password and
our domain name I can connect with no problem (I am a
domain admin). I can see our internal network and access
all resources. I added another domain user to the VPN
group I set up (i have given this group access permisions
on the RAS server, right now this group is the only policy
I have) but when this user tries to authenicate it gives
me a 649 - You do not have dial-in permission. If I set
this user up as a local user on the VPN server and VPN in,
I can connect, but cannot access any domain resources
because I have to use the vpn server name as the logon
domain. There is no Dialin tab in Active directory User
and Computers and I am controlling access by group policy.
The only thing I can possible see, is that my user name is
admin and on the VPN server there is a local user named
admin with administrator priviligies but again this is on
the local machine and I am able to logon and authenticate
on the domain.
Any ideas
Thanks,
Jeff

Your VPN server is not a domain controller, but is it a domain member?

If it is a standalone server, you will have to authenticate to its own
local SAM database. If it is a domain member, you can join it the the Domain
IAS and RAS Server group, and you can then authenticate to AD. The RRAS
server passes the authentication on to a DC (rather like RADIUS does to a
RADIUS server).

It is a member of the IAS and RAS group.

If you are authenticating to AD, the user will be granted or denied access
according to the remote access policy. To allow access based on membership
of a particular group, you need to add a new remote access policy (or modify
an existing policy) to allow access based on group membership. ie add the
condition <Windows-Groups matches "Group Name"> and select the "Grant
remote access permission" radio button.
