Question

How to configure Cisco 800 to accept PPTP VPN connections

Asked by: DavidOHaycox

We have a Cisco 877 router which has been happily accepting incoming Cisco VPN client connections for some time.  However, we have a remote user with 64-bit Vista who cannot use the Cisco VPN Client software, as it's 32-bit only.  So, we want to set up the 877 to accept incoming VPN connections (terminating at the router, not passed through to a server).

Have set up the router as in the sanitised config below, but when connecting from the client PC, the connection fails with the following error in the application log:

The user [username] dialed a connection named [connection name] which has failed. The error code returned on failure is 800.
or
The error code returned on failure is 808.

What configuration needs to be changed to allow the connection to work?  It looks as if the connection isn't even making it past the firewall.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

The 64bit  Vista or xp is not supported!

 

by: ikalmarPosted on 2009-07-29 at 09:36:25ID: 24971955

Installing the VPN Client on a 64-bit Vista Machine Results in a 1721 Error

Cisco IPSec Client does not support 64-bit. If the user requires 64-bit support, the upgrade path is to use the Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client instead, which does support 64-bit. However, the AnyConnect Client supports only SSL VPN connections (CSCsi26069).

For Windows Vista, there is no firewall support in the VPN Client. To resolve the Bluescreen issue on Windows XP related to the VPN client built-in firewall, upgrade to VPN Client version 5.0.5.x or higher.

here is on cco:

hi

you can do this using Windows new connection wizard..

- creat a new connection as a virtual private network ..

and change its setting .. after you finish the wizard ..go to it properties then security and click advanced (custom settings) and press on settings.. and make the following:

optional encryption

and

choose only Unencrypted password (PAP) under allow these protocols

and uncheck others..

try and reply

ikalmar: yes, I'm aware of the incompatibility (in fact I mention it in the question), that's why I need to find an alternative!

memo_tnt:
It's help on configuring the Cisco Router I'm after, not setting up the VPN on the client.

Sorry I wasn't more clear!

Actually, I'm just looking at that now!

Got it working based on the article at http://www.parkansky.com/tutorials/pptp.htm recommended by ikalmar.

I've attached the code that I actually used just to make it clear for anyone else.

Thanks!
