XP VPN client connecting to NT 4 RAS
I have been running RAS server to provide VPN connections via the internet for 2 years or so. I have not had any problems connecting up win98 clients. Now a home user has XP and when I configured the client in XP to connect to the ip address of the RAS server it never reaches it. I do not see any event in the logs etc. saying why the connection was refused. I used an account that I know for sure has dialin privelages etc… just seems to be something different between these and the others. This user does have a home network (most do not – the only other one that does is me, and I use a different network than at work…i.e. not 192.168.1.xxx.
Would this be a problem if the user does have the same ip network at home as we do here at work? That is the only thing I can see that might be a problem but since I never even saw a connection error I am doubting that is the problem.
Any insight is greatly appreciated.
