The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Trouble with VPN over PPTP in regards to Port Forwarding TCP 1723

Asked by AdamHolmes in Networking Hardware Firewalls, Miscellaneous Networking, Virtual Private Networking (VPN)

Tags: , , ,

I am trying to port forward for a VPN over PPTP. I've done this in the past by simply port forwarding TCP 1723; however, in my current situation it doesn't seem to be working.

What I have done:
-Enabled Routing & Remote Access on a Windows 2003 Server
-Tested the VPN connection inside the local network with success
-Port Forwarded TCP 1723 on the router
-Tested other port forwards on the router successfully (port 80, 443, etc)
-Attempted unsuccessfully to access from outside the router. I get to the Verifying Username & Password screen, but never any further. I would assume this shows that I'm having an issue with GRE 47, but I wasn't aware that I had to do anything to enable this protocol; moreover, on the firewall there is no option to enable this.

Any ideas?
