Guest flashgordonv Posted February 7, 2006 Report Posted February 7, 2006 I have been trying to set up a VPN client to access my work email and finding it very frustrating. Here is the problem. Using the Microsoft WM5 client, I set it up to use PPTP with IPSEC certificate authentication. First time it worked. Since then it will not work again no matter what I try. It reports that ti cannot connect to the email server and to check the name. Yet nothing has changed from when I connected successfully. When I go back and check the VPN settings, it has reset itself from Certificate to Pre-Shared Key and it will not take the Certificate setting. Yet this is what it used the first time I connected successfully. It is also unclear to me whether the email client is trying to use the VPN or is just using the open GPRS connection, which obviously will not work. How can I force it to use the VPN? The email setting already says to use SSL The VPN itself if OK as I access it every day from my PC.
