Am I able to configure PPTP to use a dedicated network card and IP Address on
a Windows 2003 Server? At the moment, I know that PPTP scans all IP addresses
on a NIC but can we restrict it to a single ip address on that specific card?
Keep in mind the NIC has multiple public IP addresses configured on it and I
need PPTP to only listen on 1 IP in that NIC and not all.

I short I want the ability to limit RRAS to a single ip address instead of
all ip addresses on the machine..... Is this possible, If so, How do I go
about configuring it to do so?
 
Hello Mark,

Are you using PPP for the remote dial-up? If so, you can use computer
name rather than IP address to communicate with RRAS server. Make sure
you have Computer Browsing service running.

You can also use IP filters on RRAS server for this.
Go to RRAS management console -> General -> Select the interface and open
properties page
Click on Inbound filters and add the filters to allow PPTP packets destined
to the IP address that you want to allow.
