Hi,

I am unable to access https:// sites when vpn'ing using pptp. I am able to access the local services and http sites.

Server in server-only mode and behind NAT. Port 1723 forwarded to server on router.

mmccarn, you were right. Removing the check - Use Remote Gatway fixed the issue.

mary, I did not have to forward my 443 to get this working.

Thanks for your help.
