VERY frustrating 2000 server RRAS/VPN problem

i setup rras as a remote access server. i leave the default remote access
policy alone. i then open the properties for a user account and on the
dial-in tab i click to ALLOW remote access via dial in or vpn. guess what? a
vpn connection attempt is denied and says the user does not have dialin
rights! ive rebooted, logged in physically at the machine, logged off, tried
again... same thing! whats the problem? the server is a member of a domain
but is NOT a domain controller. would there be a setting on the default
domain security policy that could be screwing me up?

Hi,

Are you using a local user account or domain account? If domain account,
make sure there is no local account with the same name on the server.

Also, is there more than one DC? Check to see if the dial in permissions
replicated to all DCs if using a domain account.

If you change the RAS policy to Grant remote access permissions based on the
conditions, does this work?

-Matt

since the machine is a stand alone server i am using the local administrator
account. would the fact that there is also an account named administrator in
AD be causing a problem? there is on,y one DC. i have not changed the policy
to GRANT because my understanding of the default policy is that access will
be allowed IF dialin access is permitted at the user level as long as day
and time restrictions do not match. please advise...

If you are using the domain name when logging one with the VPN client, then
the server is mostlikely trying to use the domain admin account.

When logging on, try using the context machinename\username, where machine
name is the RRAS server name.

Another thing to try would be creating a new user locally that does not have
a domain account and give it dial in permissions.

On your VPN connection properties, leave the domain name blank when logging
on.

great! i can connect now. however i cant ping any machines on the network. i
imagine i need to create a static route somewhere. i know that when using
dialin access via a phone modem to act as in ISP a static route must be
created with 0.0.0.0... would this be the same case?

This would depend on the way you are handing out addresses to clients. If
you giving addresses to clients that match the internal network, you should
not have to add a static route. If they are not the same, then internal
clients would need to either point to the RAS server as a default gateway,
or have individual local routes to point them back to the RAS server for
that subnet.

I would suggest using the same subnet either by creating a static pool in
RRAS using the internal subnet, or using DHCP (this is default) to hand out
addresses to RAS clients. I would check to see what address your client
gets using IPconfig. If you see a 169.254.x.x, then the RRAS server
probably is not getting addresses from DHCP. I would then go to a Static
pool.

The IP options are configured from the RRAS MMC. Right click on the server
name, go to properties, and then IP.

ok. RRAS is configured to use a DHCP relay agent. when i connect i do get an
address that matches the rest of the network, however i couldnt see anything
on the network except the rras server. i added a static route of 0.0.0.0 to
the LAN adapter in RRAS and now i CAN see the rest of the network. could you
provide an explanation as to why this is?

Your client machine receives an address when connecting (or it should),
therefore it is already in the same subnet (or it should be), so there is no
"routing",...you can not "route" to where you are already at to start with.
You need to verify which address your client is receiving and verify
specifically which machine you can ping and which you cannot, and the subnet
each is in if there are multiple subnets. Knowing *all* this makes a big
difference when trying to troublshoot this type of stuff.

The DHCP relay does not need to be configured if you are only using this as
a RAS server. Under DHCP relay, you should have the internal adapter
listed, but in the DHCP relay properties, you do not need to have your
internal server listed. The RAS server will automatically take 10 ip
addresses from the DHCP scope when started. It will hand these out to the
clients when they logon.

I have seen this to be an issue when trying to access internal resources.
