Windows 2008 VPN not working after RRAS was disabled & re-configured enabled again

Asked by AswadGazi in Virtual Private Networking (VPN), Windows Server 2008, Microsoft Server, Networking

Tags: Windows Server 2008, VPN

Hello

I would be very grateful if someone could help me with the following problem that I have experienced before and am experiencing now but do not know how to fix:

I had a Windows PPTP VPN (RRAS) configured on Windows Server 2008, using custom configuration as I only had 1 NIC. It worked flawlessly until one day one of our technicians disabled and deleted the RRAS. I tried to re-configure the vpn from scratch but the RRAS service would not start - and the following error with event 20103 was in event viewer system logs:

Unable to load C:\Windows\System32\iprtrmgr.dll.

I was able to start the RRAS service by deleting IPv6 from:
HK Local_Machine>System>Current control set>Services>Remote access>router managers>ipv6

However when I try to vpn in from outside it does not work at all.

The RRAS ports is missing the WAN mini port PPTP, and in device manager I can see WAN mini PPTP.

I have even tried the rarerepair utility but that does not work either.

Can someone please advise how I can get the vpn working again?

Many thanks

Aswad
