RRAS setup error

There is something really weird happening to us. I ahve search all over I may
have imagined and nothing comes up to solve the problem so here I go.

We have a windows 2003 standard server running service pack 1

I want to enable RRAS so using the Administrator account I go to
Administratitve Tools Routing and Remote Access.
I right click my server name and click "Configure and Enable Routing and
Remote Acess"

Here comes the first error we get a pop up which says:

"IC (Incoming Connections) is currently enabled on Server. To configure
RRAS, please disable IC and try again."

This is typed without errors and indetical to the mesagge that appears.

Ok then I go to "Control Panel" -> "Network Connections" and I can see a
"Incoming Connections" icon. Which no matter how I try to do it I cannot
delete or disable. If I right click over it and select the delete option
Windows asks "Are you sure you want to delete Incoming Connections" and no
matter if I select yes or no nothing else happens, no error mesage, nothing
logged at event viewer, just nothing and Incoming Connections is still there.

Can anyone help me?

thanks

Greetings Marcos,

I know this doesn't help you but it might narrow down your problem. Every
time I have experienced this problem I deleted Incoming Connections and it
resolved the problem. I would say your problem with RRAS right now is
leaning on getting your IC to delete.

Hopefully someone can provide better assistance.

Good Luck,
