I know this isn't a MS support site but I'm trying to set up a MS RAS server
for my company and have people gain access via the internet using PPTP  and
I'm having a devil of a time getting it to work.  I want to know if I'm
missing something on the firewall side.  My MS clients are generating the
following error message "PPTP client generate an Error 721: Remote Peer not
responding" when trying to connect to the RAS server.
 
I've defined defined TCP port 1723 & GRE Protocol (IP protocol 47) for PPTP
and allow it through to the RAS server.  I can see the protocols being
accepted in the log, but the RAS client logs indicates that it is timing out
waiting for replies from the server   Can anyone think of anything I might
be missing in the firewall config that might be causing me to loose so much
hair?
