I have set up a PPTP vpn and use it within my LAN for authentication reasons. I require that some users have full access to the internet while others are restricted (HTTP proxy), so I use the PPTP to allow users full access. This works in principle, however, when connecting to the VPN i get several different error messsages.
Initially I often get the "connection was closed by the remote computer" error, but the main problem is I get the error "error 737: Loopback was detected". After a few tries, it does work, I can browse the LAN and access the internet as I intended.
I've probably overlooked something or done something stupid, but I just can't work it out. Perhaps there's something in packet filter I can do to prevent a loopback.
any comment (critical or constructive) would be much appreciated.
