Does your server support that? I would change the connection properties on the client to use pptp or whateverprotocol the other machine which connects is using.

Windows 7 workstation to a PPTP VPN being served by a Server 2003 machine running RRAS I received VPN Error: 720 "A connection to the remote computer might not be established. You might need to change the network settings for http://thenubbyadmin.com/2010/09/12/solving-pptp-vpn-error-720-on-windows-7/ this connection." This would happen after the "Verifying username and password" phase during the "Registering your https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/28664879/PPTP-VPN-to-Windows-Server-RRAS-Error-720.html computer on the network" phase. My Solution: Rebuild the TCP/IP stack by opening an elevated command prompt and running the following command: netsh int ip reset The Long Story: I'm running Windows 7 RC and have a PPTP VPN connectoid that connects to a Server 2003 RRAS server. I was able to successfully connect just yesterday but today when I attempt to connect it gets error 720 as far as "Registering your computer on the network" and then fails with Error: 720 "A connection to the remote computer might not be established. You might need to change the network settings for this connection." *sigh* I always hate it when things that worked one day suddenly and with seemingly no reason stop working. To my knowledge no updates have been applied to the server or to my Windows 7 machine in the time between yesterday and today. First I check error code returned to see if my Virtual XP instance can connect to the VPN. I created a new VPN connectoid and was able to connect with no problems using simple default settings. I then looked at my Windows 7 connectoid's options and did a little twiddling like disabling "include Windows logon domain" (not sure how that got enabled in the first place) and moved it from PPTP to Automatic (all it does is delay the logon time while it tries to figure out how to connect from among the available options but I figured it was worth a try). Still no luck. I created a brand new connectoid using the default values for everything and it still gave me Erorr: 720. Fortunately I have a secondary VPN that I use for just such an occasion. It's via a SonicWALL TZ 180 using the lone SonicWALL Global VPN Client license that came with the firewall. I connected with that so I could check out the RRAS server. The RRAS service was started and the RRAS console showed that all seemed well. I decided to restart the RRAS service from the console and got a little misty that I was saying goodbye to 137 days, 15 hours and 43 seconds of uptime. After the service restart I still received Error: 720. Fare thee well 137 days of uptime… I feel that your death was in vain. =( Looking back, I suppose it was unlikely that the pr

Solved PPTP VPN to Windows Server RRAS - Error 720 Posted on 2015-04-29 VPN Windows Networking Windows Server 2012 1 Verified Solution 9 Comments 897 Views Last Modified: 2015-04-30 I have a conundrum with connecting to a Windows Server 2012 Essentials machine using PPTP. The server is behind a NAT router with port 1723 forwarded through to it. It's a Draytek router, so it handles the GRE protocol properly etc. And PPTP connections from the Internet to this server used to work. However, we don't have to connect to it very often, so I don't know at what stage it broke, or what changed. When I connect using a Windows 8.1 PC, I get the error "Error 720: A connection to the remote computer could not be established. You might need to change the network settings for this connection". Not the most helpful of messages. I get the same from two different Windows 8.1 PCs, and an iPhone configured as a PPTP client doesn't connect either. I know the credentials I'm sending are correct, and I've tried the username in the format "domain\username" and in the format "username" as well. In the System Event Log on the server, I get an error 20255 in RemoteAccess: "CoId={NA}: The following error occurred in the Point to Point Protocol module on port: VPN3-49, UserName: DOMAIN\username. A connection to the remote computer could not be established. You might need to change the network settings for this connection." I've tried configuring RRAS on the server to assign IP addresses from a static address pool, rather than getting them from DHCP, but that didn't help. The Windows 8.1 client PCs are configured to use MS-CHAP v2 for authentication, and the network policy on the server includes that as an option too. Anyway, I'm a bit stumped at the moment. I'm finding it hard to narrow down the problem further. Any suggestions where I could go from here, please? 0 Question by:wakatashi Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Google LVL 14 Active 6 days ago Best Solution byplug1 No worries, a red herring it is then :) 720 refers to no PPP control protocols being configured so what I would do is quickly disable the RRAS server and reconfigure it using the wizard fro
