Anyone now how the feck you get this working? Tried turning the firewall off to no avail, portforwarded 1723 from what I can find on google but to no avail.

Standard VPN using Win XP, not using Cisco VPN client or similar software, it's just one set up through windows.

Nope, but I might be joining you in this struggle once my remote access gets granted this morning.

Have you tried enabling port clamping?

Cheers Sam, but no it hasn't worked. I've emailed IT but they won't pick it up I doubt!

Turned off webpage help as well, hasn't worked.

It's been suggested to change the DNS server on the laptop, I can't because I don't have the privileges.

Oh well, conference call at 10:30 and I'll do fuck all else today.

Is it a work laptop? Does it have a proxy on? Try turing this off?

It is a work laptop. I can't do shit as I don't have the privileges on my account.
