Hi
Is there any way to use another port than the standard 1723 port for pptp vpn connection?
I am running 10.4 and has opened Internet Connect and tried with the serveradress xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1724, but the connection closes right away, stating that the server can't be reached (very fast, so it is not a username/password issue).
The reason for the use of another port is because the server is sharing connection with another server and that server uses the other port and we're not allowed to connect via that server, so we have tried to arrange the routersetup so that it routes incoming calls on 1724 to "our" server port 1723, but it doesn't seem to work...

TIA,
Peter
