Hi,
I have a win2k server configured as VPN server. This VPN
server is installed behind a PIX firewall. Port 1723
(tcp/Udp) and protocol type GRE is open in the firewall.
My Remote access client can connect this vpn box and
works with PCAnywhere. The problem is when only one
client connect and work in PCAnywhere he don't face any
problem but when two clients connect and one try to
initiate PCAnywhere connection both of then gets loged
out and they cannot connect for 3/4 hours. After that
they can connect again.
My question is why they cannot connect for 3/4 hours.
What is the thing blocking them. Is it the firewall or
the vpn box? I tried to connect the VPN box from several
diff subnet and I was able. but alll subnets were behind
the firewall.
How can I find out what is the problem?

BTW, Both remote clients are conning from same net behind
another firewall. that means they appare as a single IP
to the vpn box.
 
I think that it is because of the account lockout policy that *seems*
enabled. check out the group policy settings for the security settings ->
account policies -> account lockout policies.

Are the clients logging on with the same account by any chance? if they do,
have them use their own account rather than share one.
