Hello,

I am trying to create a vpn connection on my windows XP
Professional system. I try creating the connection and
when it comes to the choice of choosing VPN or dialup
connection both options are greyed out. Is there
something I am missing somewhere. I have gotten it to
work from other XP machines just not this one. Any help
is greatly appreciated.

Here are some options you can try:
Take a look at the following KB articles.

I know they are not the same scenario as yours but you might want to give it
a try and see if it fixes your problem.

Also
Go to event viewer (right click "My Computer" and select "Manage")-->
Systems and check to see if there are any ras related
errors.
Go to services (right click "My Computer" and select "Manage")--> Make sure
"Remote access connection manager" is started


Thanks
