Windows 8.1 PPTP VPN error 734
Hello,
I am attempting to establish a VPN connection to a client site using Windows 8.1 Pro update 1. I have two laptops running Windows 7 pro that work perfectly. Trying to establish a new connection using the =exact same settings= on the Windows
8.1 system returns error 734 every single time. Both systems are running the same version of McAfee firewall and are on the same local network.
Thanks,
Tim

Or try these steps :
1) go to network/sharing (right click connection icon lower righthand corner) -> change adapter settings
2) right click your vpn connetions
3) click Options tab
4) uncheck remember my credentials

Help needed to connect to remote PPTP VPN via PIX 515e
Hello,
A user in our office needs to connect to a client's remote PPTP VPN but can't connect. The user is running Windows 7. We have a Cisco PIX 515e firewall that is running PIX Version 6.3(3) - this is what our user is having to go through to try and make the connection to the client's remote VPN.
The client's network guys have come back and said the issue is at our side. They say that they can see some of our traffic but not all of it. The standard error is shown below, and they say it's symptomatic of the client-side firewall not allowing PPTP traffic:
"A connection between the VPN server and the VPN client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX has been established, but the VPN connection cannot be completed. The most common cause for this is that a firewall or router between the VPN server and the VPN client is not configured to allow Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) packets (protocol 47). Verify that the firewalls and routers between your VPN server and the Internet allow GRE packets. Make sure the firewalls and routers on the user's network are also configured to allow GRE packets. If the problem persists, have the user contact the Internet service provider (ISP) to determine whether the ISP might be blocking GRE packets."
I have very little firewall experience and absolutely no Cisco experience I'm afraid. From looking at the PIX config I can see the following line:
fixup protocol pptp 1723.
Does this mean that the PPTP protcol is enabled on our firewall? Is this for both incoming and outgoing traffic?
I can see no reference to GRE 47 in the PIX config. Can anyone advise me what I should look for to see if this has been enabled or not?
I apologise again for my lack of knowledge. Any help or advice would be very gratefully received.
RosHi Eugene,
Thank you for taking the time to reply to me. Please see our full PIX config below. I've XX'd out names and IP addresses as I'm never comfortable posting those type of details in a public forum. I hope that the information below is still sufficient for you.
Thanks again for your help,
Ros

Can't Connect to Pix 501 VPN on Network
Hi All,
I have a software VPN client that connects just fine to the PIX 501 VPN, but I cannot ping or telnet to any services on the LAN. Below is my config and results of show cry ipsec sa. I would appreciate any suggestions to fix this.
It's been a while since I have done this. When I check the DHCP address received from the VPN, the default gateway is missing. IIRC, that is normal. What is strange is that when I ping, Windows does not show any sent packets.
Thanks,

[Solved] NetworkManager-pptp VPN not working after update to 0.9.10
Hello,
I have a PPTP VPN set up and it's been working for a long time. However, after I updated last night to networkmanager-0.9.10, it is no longer able to connect to the remote network. I can activate the VPN connection, enter my password, but after a short period of time, the connection reports: "Error: Connection activation failed: the VPN service returned invalid configuration." As I mentioned before, this VPN was working right before the update and I didn't change the configuration on either my computer or the destination network so I'm pretty sure that this is something to do with the update. I'm wondering if anybody else has run into this problem and if they've been able to find a solution. I've been searching all over these forums and the internet for some hours now and I haven't found anything yet. I'm hoping that somebody might be able to point me in the right direction or maybe know of something that might have changed with the new update.
Here is my VPN configuration (using NetworkManager-PPTP. I've also obscured the public IP address):
[connection]

Last edited by greyseal96 (2014-08-27 15:20:02)Hmm, not sure about the 3.16 series kernel, but I found that when I upgraded to kernel 3.18 the PPTP VPN also stopped working. This time, though, it was because, for some reason, there was a change in kernel 3.18 where the firewall kernel modules necessary for the VPN don't get loaded so the firewall won't allow some of the PPTP traffic from the remote side back in. Since the firewall is stateful, these modules need to be loaded so that the firewall can know that the incoming PPTP traffic from the remote side is part of an existing connection. Here's what my network manager logs looked like:

To fix this, I had to add a file to the /etc/modules-load.d directory to have the modules loaded into the kernel at boot. I just created a file called netfilter.conf and put the following in it:
nf_nat_pptp
nf_conntrack_pptp
nf_conntrack_proto_gre
Not sure if this addresses your problem or not, but maybe it's worth a look. -
Hi
I have configured a PIX firewall having 6.3 IOS for PPTP VPN. Everything is working fine. Just I need to specify IP address on user basis e.g
user1 ----> 192.168.1.5
user2 ----> 192.168.1.6
I have tried every possible way. But looks like it is not possible in PIX using local database. Is it possible if I use any radius server?? If yes the how.
~/DevI have researched the best solution that keeps my BlackBerry traffic encrypted so I am 100% safe and secure to surf anonymously. With blackberry vpn pptp my wireless connection will be protected any time.

Cannot connect to RV110w VPN error 619
Hello,
I'm having problems logging into my RV110w using either quickvpn or a windows pptp client connection....
I've been following the guide here but I just can't connect....I can connect via remote management however....
https://supportforums.cisco.com/document/124251/remote-vpn-tunnel
So :
IPSec, PPTP and L2Tp enabled.

QuickVPN tries to connect then shows a message listing possible reasons for a failed connection....
The quickvpn log shows:

This is all behind a talktalk fibre router, they say it's transparent and doesn't block anything but they won't support me any further than that. Ports 443 and 1723 do seem to be open when I scan so as far as I can see the talktalk router is transparent.
Do I need to create any rules on the RV110w firewall to get this working? or forward any ports to the router itself?
Thanks for any help, KevinI believe the problem is in iOS, as I am experiencing the same issue.
I have a Yosemite Server running L2TP VPN server and my Mac connects flawless, while neither the iPhone nor the iPad (both 8.2) are able to connect.
The error is the same "The L2TP-VPN server did not respond" and by looking at the server's log it seems iOS didn't even try to connect.
I have tried changing the server address in iOS with the corresponding IP, but the results it's the same.
Maybe a network setting reset? -
Can't connect to PPTP-VPN server...
When attempting to connect to a DD-WRT PPTP VPN server I kept receiving the general "Can't connect to PPTP-VPN server." message. All of the settings were exactly correct and tested on a Windows laptop. I began writing this because I didn't have any other ideas but half way through it (out of the blue) decided to attempt connecting. It worked!
The only thing I did different was delete the /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration contents and reboot.
Let's hope it continues to work. Posting this in case anyone else has the same error as I.A follow up on the VPN issue: it would only work if my laptop's wireless was tethered off of my Android phone - any other connection would connect to the VPN and get an IP but I couldn't ping anything. Also, after rebooting, I get the exact same damning error message now and any combination of rebooting and removing/renaming (don't ever delete system files!) /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/* hasn't fixed the issue.
I very much hope Apple releases an update soon for this - it's a serious inconvenience! It must be a network stack issue too because I've tried many 3rd party applications that barf as well. -
L2TP VPN Error: "MPPE required but peer negotiation failed"
Clean Leopard Server install. Fairly clean Leopard client, too. Tried to setup an L2TP VPN service, and connect to it from the client machine, and I get this in the client's log:
11/6/07 2007-11-06 T 20:23:52 (PST) pppd[374] IPSec connection established

11/6/07 2007-11-06 T 20:23:53 (PST) pppd[374] Connection terminated.
As far as I can tell from searching the web, MPPE should not even be involved (but I really don't know the protocol). If I setup a PPTP VPN on the same pair of machines all is well.
I really think this is a bug in either Leopard or Leopard Server. Anyone else bumping into this wall?
regards,
Bill.I have the exact same problem. Hopefully Apple will fix this soon. I'm trying to connect to a Linux Box with OpenSwan and L2tpd.

IVPN starts, but "the pptp-vpn server did not respond. Try reconnecting."
Hi. I am new to VPN, and I just got the software iVPN from Macserve, and the server starts successfully, using either PPTP or L2TP:
But the connections from my network do not connect. Every time I click on "connect" for either network connection, I get the error "the pptp-vpn server did not respond. Try reconnecting."
I set up both connections in my Network Preferences according to the support page (http://macserve.org.uk/support/ivpn/):
My Airport Express configurations have never given me any problems with my home network:
And I think that I forwarded the ports properly (even though my firewall is not activated):
What am I doing wrong?The Apple routers can be a problem on vpn passthrough.
Ports that are required for vpn are more complicated ..
See earlier post.. eg How do I set up L2TP VPN?
Ports for PPTP which you have opened manually.. are not valid for L2TP.. so you need several more ports opened.
The problematic ones are GRE and ESP which are protocols not ports.
I think you can pretty well assume the apple router running anything that has BTMM in it won't work.. since it will need the port 500 for itself.
On the old express try going back to 7.6.1 firmware.. I have to say I don't use the express.. lots of extreme and TC.. so their firmware issues are slightly different so firmware versions for the express are somewhat different.
Try not to use both port forwards (mapping if you must).. and DMZ.. they can fight each other.. if DMZ doesn't work it is better to turn it right off and forward all the required ports.
Let me recommend a test.
Plug your cable modem directly into the computer running the VPN.. so you have no NAT router in front of it.
Pay attention to the local firewall that apple runs and what ports you will need to open on it to get vpn to work.. this is your best chance to get remote vpn running. If you fail with the public IP on the computer it will certainly fail through NAT.. and generally local firewall will be an issue.
You should of course test that a client in the local lan can connect by the vpn.. it is always worth testing from the easiest configuration to the most complex.
So local lan just as you have now..
Then direct cable connection to the computer.
Then NAT router.. but you can pretty well assume apple routers are going to be problematic because apple want to dally at BTMM using same ports as IPSEC uses for L2TP.
My email is live.. roll your mouse over it and talk to me direct.. -
Trouble about vpn connecting (PPTP VPN did not respond)
I am new in mac. These days I have searched a lot on line for the solution to this problem but none fixed it. So....
Our lab only have an instruciton for connecting vpn under windows and I succeeded to do this by following this in windwos 7.
There is a host name instead of ip address in the instruciton and I think that should not be the problem.
And in the protocol of TCP/IP property settings, the user was asked to Remove the tick before “Use default gateway on remote network”. Besides, in the instruction, it sets to obtain the IP address and DNS address automatically, so that I do not have such inforamtion about the server of our lab.
In my new macbook pro (Mac ox lion 10.7.3), I did the following things:
1. in system properties->network, Select the + button at the bottom left of the screen to add a new connection.
2. Select the following:
a. Interface: VPN
b. VPN Type: PPTP
c. Service Name: SAS VPN
d. Select Create.
3. Configuration: default
server address: host name “xxx.xx.xxxx.xx”
account name: (I am sure there is no error in this)
encryptiong: none
4. click Authorization settings to input the password.
5. Click the Advanced button. and Select Options. Verify Send all traffic over VPN connection is checked. (and is not checked ) (I tried both, none of them worked). About the other seetings.
6. On the TCP/IP tab, set "Configure IPv4" to "Using PPP." So I can not input the DNS server information.
7. click apply and then try to connect.
However, it returned me an error said " PPTP-VPN server did not respond. Try to reconnect. If that continues....."
I think there are lots of experts in mac os x. Can anyone here help me with this? Thanks a lot in advance!>> encryptiong: none
I found out, that you NEED the encryption in Lion Server VPN.
I understand, that you use Lion Server as you mention the problem here in the Lion Server section.
I do the following: Install the "Admin Tool VPN" from App-Store for some Euros. Than I found section PPTP and there is a check for
a) Active
b) Compression and Encryption
I take the check for b) out and restart (Off / On), took my XP-Notebook and connected via PPTP and all working!
Since Lion Apple hide a lot of things from the official tools and if you have some special tools, you can activate function. There is
Level 1, the userlevel: Something like Dashboard in the new MS-Servers or the Server App in the new Lion Server
Level 2, the administrator level: The difference between Server App and Server Admin! The Server Tools you need download separatly as you know after a while, something is missing. Same with the new Airport Utility: Userlevel tool = AU 6.0 with grafical fun and some basics, AU 5.6 is the tool for the admin what you separtly need download.
Level 3, the special deeper view: Typically it is the command line interface, CLI, but if you need some GUI (grafical user interface), you buy an App like Admin VPN Tool and this tool (App for some Euros) in real does nothing else than comfortably set some inside switches and flags that the offical GUI admin tools not have realized.
Why?
Oh, I think it's because security issues. You want the Mac Server become like a Microsoft Server? So, you shouldn't use not encrypted connections and that's (in my understanding) the reason why the Lion Server EXPECTS YOU to use encryption and the official tools not give you the oportunity to switch the encryption off! -

But if I create a vpdn-group 2 and a Dialer1 interface, with dialer-group 2, its still attempting to connect to the IP in vpdn-group 1 - how do I get it to use the 2nd vpdn-group, or how do I make this work? and which cisco 3G Router you prefer because these are remote sites and only 3G Internet service is available.I want the router to be a PPTP VPN client to 2 independent PPTP servers, both are in different cities in Cisco routers. I have tested with one on cisco 1841 aqnd its working fine; but when I add the 2nd, its using vpdn-group 1 and therefore connecting to the wrong PPTP server:
here is the config for the one that works:
vpdn-group 1
request-dialin
protocol pptp
rotary-group 0
initiate-to ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
interface Dialer0
mtu 1450
ip address negotiated
ip pim dense-mode
ip nat outside
ip virtual-reassembly
zone-member security private
encapsulation ppp
ip igmp query-interval 125

dialer vpdn

PPTP VPN on Server 2008R2 dropping users but acting like it is still connected
Hello,
I'm having a weird problem and I'm at a loss. We have a couple of cloud servers that form our remote office system. Basically, their is 1 DC, 1 Remote Desktop server, and 2 member servers being used as workstations. The users access these
server and resources via a PPTP VPN setup on the DC using RRAS. Everything has worked fairly well for the last year, but recently, my users have complained that they get disconnected at random times over the last couple of weeks. I was able
to observe the behavior yesterday and it goes something like this:
-The user is working fine
-The user tries to access a share, open a web page, tries to open a remote desktop session or notices that their Outlook client is disconnected and finds that nothing can be reached outside of the local machine. I tried pinging the DC address,
www.google.com, and the RDP server without success. From the server, I tried pinging the errant workstation without success. The server shows the connection to be active and the workstation does not disconnect the connection. On
one occasion, the problem just rectified itself and everything started working again. On all other occasions, the VPN had to be disconnected and reconnected. Note that some workstations are not reporting this problem.
-The user disconnects the VPN
-The user reconnects the VPN and usually everything is okay again for awhile, but sometimes they are disconnected within minutes.
This is new behavior, and no changes have been made by me and the Cloud support people tell me they haven't done anything. At this point, I'm not even sure how to go about troubleshooting it. The next time it happened, I was going to pull an ARP table
to see if anything looks amiss, but the only other avenue I have going is a call into the cloud services support to see if they can look for dropped or filtered information between our main office and our cloud server.
The only part of this setup that is a little bit different for me is the IPv4 settings in the RRAS console under properties of the server. Normally in the IPv4 settings, I select DHCP and allow the users to pull from the existing DHCP server. However, the
cloud support recommended against having a DHCP server, so instead of DHCP, I selected "use static IP address pool." I put 10.216.8.197 to 10.216.8.22 and the subnet mask is picking up from the server as 255.255.255.224 and the default gateway is
picking up from the server as 10.216.8.193.
Does anyone have any advice on how to troubleshoot this problem? What to try next if the cloud services support doesn't find anything, etc?
Thanks,
Jeffery SmithHi Jeffery,
According to your description, the VPN clients can connect the server at the beginning, but when we reconnected after going wrong, they were disconnected within minutes. Maybe the next time it happened, we could follow steps below to troubleshoot this issue.
Use ipconfig /all command in the VPN client when we set up VPN connection, to view which IP address the VPN client obtain.
Pull an ARP table from the VPN client to view the IP Address-Physical Address mappings as you said will help to troubleshoot this issue. The assigned IP address maybe used by other computers.
If the static IP address pool range from 10.216.8.197 to 10.216.8.22, due to the subnet is 255.255.255.224, there are 8 subnet in the 10.216.8.0/27 network. If the static IP address pool consists of ranges of IP addresses that are for a separate subnet,
then we need to either enable an IP routing protocol on the remote access server computer or add static IP routes consisting of the {IP Address, Mask} of each range to the routers of the intranet. If the routes are not added, then remote access clients can’t
receive traffic from resources on the intranet.
Best Regards,
Tina
