Routing and Remote Access only allows 5 users to connect

I recently setup Routing and Remote access on my Windows 2003 server. It works fine except only 5 users can connect. I know it allows up to 1000 connections but I can't find how to increase it above 5.

Thanks.

How many addresses do you have allotted in your address pool? Let us know.

Here is a brief example:

http://www.techrepublic.com/article/managing-routing-and-remote-access-in-windows-server-2003/5089192
Click on Start> Programs> Administrative Tools> Routing and Remote Access.

Expand your Server, then click on Ports.

Now right-click on Ports and choose Properties.

Double-Click on the WAN Miniport (PPTP) port and change the number of PPTP ports from 5 to whatever number you need and click on OK twice.

Job done.
