Hi,

Got a black screen from windows 98 se running terminal server client
connecting to 2000 server over PPTP.

Is this something to do with MTU ? any idea how to sort ?

(user maintains nothing new installed on machine, I have seen this problem
after installing a Cisco vpn clinet before).

Thanks
Scott.
 
note: i tested using 2k pro clinet over pptp and did not have a problem, ok
iternally also.
 
when running the ping test (i.e ping -t -l 1470) from external to vpn
server it worked at MTU of 1470 yet when the windows 98 users connected they
still got a black screen.

i thought that if the ping test worked then the mtu would apply to all
machines ?

thanks for any information.
scott.
 
ran test from 98 machine with problem and they could only ping at 500.

when changing MTU to 500 it terminal server clinet worked.

Thanks
Scott.
