Hi
I've a question about L2TP protocol. If it possible to use L2TP protocol
with dial up connection. For example you configure vpn server to
use L2TP and clients dial in to the network form laptops. In some
sources there is written that you can use only PPTP.

Thanks
 
L2tp can work however it will not work if the VPN server is behind a NAT router
though there is a workaround if the VPN server is Windows 2003 in which case you can
install the NAT-T upgrade on the VPN clients. L2tp also requires a computer
certificate on the VPN server and the VPN client and both must chain to a trusted
Certificate Authority. --- Steve
