I can't connect from my home (Win7 Starter) to the wife's office (WinXP Home) via a VPN connection.
I followed the directions here to setup the VPN Server on the XP system: WindowsXP VPN Server
Forwarded ports 1723, 500, 51, 50, 47
Followed the setup a new connection wizard. Can't connect with new account (made in the VPN wizard. Can't connect with an existing account on the VPN server system either. I am able to connect from another home system to the system that hosts the VPN server using pcAnywhere.
Either attempt gives an Error 800 - the VPN tunnel failed.
Any ideas on where to start looking?
