    Home VPN


    Anyone use or have configured a Home VPN?

    I am not talking about connecting to your employers cisco VPN, i mean so you and a friend can connect and access whatever or do whatever (gaming)

    Just curious what people use and what works with WIN7

    Yes, jmbender i have, although i have yet to set it up for win7 as of yet. I just assume its not much different from XP. I rather use MS vpn, instead of installing a third party like Hamachi or openVpn (which i did pickup, yet to check it out).

    Hmm, I am starting to think that there is no setup of VPN, only vpn connections outbound............ Yikes!

    Certainly I am just not finding it, i hope... but i have searched and searched myself just now

    Anyone, help on this? Is it avaiable for setup in win7 like for XP? I'm on ultimate install so i would have just assumed it was available, but so far no good.

    Am going to take a good guess and say that this has to be configured thru the IAS/Radius Server?

    guessing thats the only viable way...
    also pickup the beta which is compatible with vista (just checking if you knew..)

    unbelievable for MS NOT to include this for 7 in any build/version?? Wow, this sort of a big factor here. Why in the world would they not include it? I'm sure some ppl like to use open/hamachi or whatever, but for MS not to include their own... on an Ultimate version at that
