    Same problem here. ASL 2.016 and W2K SP2 (German). If I try to connect several times it works sometimes.

    hi guys, 

    are you using a fresh installation of asl or and updated from 1.8?

    what are yout settings in win2k properties?

    What does the pptplog tell you?

    kind regards

    I had similar problems with new PPTP accounts. I tried a lot of different approaches. Finally I decided to change password of user account.

    First i changed password into one letter one. Account that didn't work earlier worked ok.

    Then i gradually added one letter into password and tested account. After adding some letters until after 5th or 6th character account stopped responding. I deleted the last character and it worked again. Then I added different character and it worked too.

    I didn't find any pattern which passwords we're not accepted or which characters.

    Yes, it's strange but I can confirm same behaviour.

    Hey there the PPTP-Connection would work fine until i'am update my win2k (german) to SP2 and all the security updates. Is there a connection between this updates and the not func. PPTP-VPN?

    So I am not only one with this problem. Seems to be a bug.

    I have Astaro 2.0.16 and Win2K (FI version) + SP2

    When i used the password that i used for the webadmin, and the other defaults that i set during setup,(i used the same password for all). i would get the error that everbody is getting. can't configm identity. when i changed my personal user password to something different it worked fine.
    don't know if that helps out but my 2000 pptp is now working
