Hello, I recently bought an iMac and I am running Windows 7 Ulitmate on VMware Fusion. I am trying to set-up a VPN connection that I had on my previous computer which was running Windows XP. When I tried to establish the connection Error 742 - something to do with encryption, came up. From reading postings it is my understanding that if I am trying to connect to a VPN host that is running an earlier version of Windows, I am unable to connect. I have no control over the settings on the host end and I have recently come across a 'workaround' solution that is applicable to Windows Vista. Is there a 'workaround' solution for Windows 7 Ultimate and if so I would greatly appreciate the help. Regards Ital

Hi, Based on my research, I would like to share you the following Knowledge Base to troubleshoot the issue. You receive a "741" or a "742" error message when you try to establish a VPN connection by using L2TP/IPsec from a Windows client computer to a VPN server Hope it helps.
