Static IP Address for a VPN connection
I have routing and remote access setup on my server and I would like when an end user VPN's in to have a static IP rather than a dynamic. Is there anyway to do this and can I do it for only one end user??

Do I setup that DCHP on the server end or in the routing and remote access?
There's a mini-DHCP allocator that comes with RRAS but it won't allow you to specify reservations. You can only do that with a regular DHCP server. Are you trying to set this up for one user & one machine or many users with many machines?

yes...just one user and one pc.
After thinking about this some more I remembered you can set this on the user account properties. Just open the user account using Active Directory Users and Computers and select the Dial-in tab, toward the bottom, there is an option to set a static address for that user. Just make sure it's in the range that the mini-dhcp allocator creates. To check that range, go to RRAS and select the properties of the server, then select the IP tab.
