VPN networking and fixed IP address

I have a Windows 2003 server, which I am using to provide VPN connectivity.

I need the client to be able to specify a fixed IP address - but when I try
this, I get an error which says:-
'TCP/IP CP reported error 735: The requested address was rejected by the
server'

The VPN server seems to be able to provide DHCP, or select from a pool of
addresses (these work fine), but I don't seem to be able to allow the client
to specify its own fixed IP address.

Can anyone offer any help so I can do this?
 
Why not let the VPN use DHCP, then just make a reservation based on the
client's MAC......it'll never change.
 
I work in the emergency services. We have a life critical non-windows
application that needs to communicate with remote and mobile resources by
using their fixed IP addresses.

We have GPRS L2TP VPN working fine - the only thing is we don't seem able to
fix the IP address of the client.

Any ideas how we can do this?
