Multiple SBS 2k3 Host VPN's from a lone WinXP Pro Box doesn't work
I connect to multiple SBS VPN's through PPTP (1723) and haven't had an issue until recently. Suddenly I can't connect to 5 different VPN's I can connect to 3 others just fine.
I am using Windows XP Pro connecting to Servers running SBS 2003 and I get the error 628 on verifying username and password. I have checked all the normal issues MTU and reseting up the RAS wizards on the host ends.
These are all sites that I have been connecting to perfectly for months and suddenly I can't connect. I don't think it's anything on the host ends, I would guess it's something on my end, I just can't think of what though, I have tried to connect from multiple pc's from behind this same router, no dice. I will be trying to connect through another connection later today.
I am on a cable connection with a Linksys VOIP router RTP300.
I need to figure out what is going on asap as it is hindering my ablility to get work done.
BTW I also posted this in the Microsoft Networking Channel and have gotten some responses but no resolution as of yet.

hmmm... usually not having the GRE protocol enabled would cause a 721 error... instead of the 628... but heck, if that's what it was, then you should be set.

btw the setting was under security/vpn passthrough/allow pptp passthrough
This setting was greyed out previously and I thought it might have something to do with it. As it stands now, after they flashed the router I still couldn't get through but after setting this setting which was previously unavailable I could get through without a problem.
Thanks again!
