VPN adapter ip address wrong

How do I configure the IP address of the PPP adapter RAS Server (Dial In)
Interface on our win2k3 server? our VPN has given up as it is currently set
to 169.254.x.x where it should be on our usual range. Remote users can
connect but they get an IP address which is in the wrong range, and can
therefore not connect to any of the other servers on our network...

TIA,

Phil

this may help. quoted from http://www.ChicagoTech.net
Why does my VPN server or client PPP adapter have 169.x.x.x IP

When using ipconfig command on a VPN (server or client), you may get PPP
adapter RAS Server (Dial In) Interface; IP Address - 169.x.x.x; Subnet
ask - 255.255.255.255. This is because your VPN server doesn't have DHCP to
assign IP so that the the VPN server uses APIPA to provides an address like
169.x.x.x.
