Hi,

I am trying to build VPN between small office and my home. Our setup is like
that:

Office:
Server is WIndows 2003 and VPN server enabled, PPTP
Router is Linksys with "PPTP Pass Through" enabled and port 1723 is
forwarded to this Windows 2003 server with VPN server.
IP address for local network is : 192.168.1.*, gateway: 192.168.1.1, DNS
server: 192.168.1.100

Clinet:
Windows XP machine that is placed in DMZ zone (this is initial setup i am
trying to make work).
IP address for local network is : 192.168.0.*, gateway: 192.168.0.1, DNS
form ISP

When I start connection from Client - I am reaching point "Veryfiny user
name and password" and then that is it. No extra info in logs or traces (I
enable all loging
and tracing). In the file rasman.log I found following line, not sure if
disconnect reason 1 means anyting:
[5648] 03-31 22:30:43:135: *****
DisconnectReason=1,pConn=0x0,cbports=0,signaled=0,hEvent=0xffffffff,fRedial=
0
I could post here more logs if that would help.
I noticed that server adds client IP address to its routing table, so some
sort of connection is established, but then nothing happens.


I can establish VPN from inside office, but not from home, so I know that
remote access policies are setup properly.
Where should I look next?

TIA

More likely it is router settings issue. which model?

Router is LinkSys BEFSR41, Firmeware version: 1.45.7 (latest)
As I said - forward is done for port 1723 and PPTP Passthrough is enabled.

Also: below are results for IPCONFIG /all command on the server. PPP adapter
appeared after I succesfully established VPN from inside office.
I noticed that PPP adapter does not have default gateway. Could this be a
problem?

make sure you have UDP 500 open in addition to the 1723 on
the linksys

I believe UDP 500 is used just by IPSec, it is not needed for PPTP.
Anyway, I tried to open 500, but it did not help.
