Hi there I am having troubles connecting to a new SME 7.4 installation at work this is the log for the connection:

I checked the post for the same problem and many people have this line:
 LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests
I already increase the time out, but it didn't work.

I have another SME Server running in other country and from the same computer (home) I can connect, so it discard my pc at home.

Any clues????

Google for 'LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests' and look at the first hit, which concerns diagnosis of that particular issue.

I have another SME Server running in other country and from the same computer (home) I can connect, so it discard my pc at home.

I have same problem. Same error message.
But I discovered if I remove WRT150N (on client side) I can VPN to SME7.3.
Are you after a WRT150N also ?

BTW: This very same WRT150N worked like a champion for months... so suddenly VPN PPTP stopped to work . Not sure how/why till now... searching for explanations yet. BTW: I assure you: PPTP Passthrough is enabled!

hope you guys can help with my vpn problems

i have 4 sites with 4 xp pro (sp3) pc's connecting to my 7.4 sme server.

there are 2 sites where i have problems.

whenever a xp pc wants to make a vpn connection it just sits on " verifying username and password "
then it gives me a 721 error

i have disabled the firewalls on the xp boxes on both sites and still have the same problem. user names do exist on the sme box and have vpn access enabled. i even changed the routers on both sites and still no access.

any help greatly appreciated

got it sorted

all is working fine 

long live sme
