This problem is a strange one. I have 3 machines all clean installs of windows 7 profesional. I have setup a VPN connection on all 3 in the same way but with different user logons. I try and VPN into a remote server (sbs2008) with all 3 machines and one machine connects every time without issue the other 2 sometimes connect and other times come up with an error 800. I have then setup new VPN connections on the machine that connects correctly and they can connect with the different user details. my issue is where to start. Is it a server issue or is it a client issue ? help much appreciated
