VPN Connection Problem
Hi All,
I have been trying to use the VPN in the Mac OS X. I have set up the VPN according to the help file and the website that gude on setting up the VPN connection. When I tried to connect using the VPN (PPTP), it always prompt "The connection was terminated by the communication device. Please verify your settings and try again." I have tried the VPN on windows platform and its ok. Can anyone help me, pls? Thks.

PPtP also has a lot of possible settings on the server side (typical MS... it is actually a collection of only-slightly related protocols hacked into a group), and so you might want to ask the VPN admin to look at the logs.
I use PoPToP (open source PPtP server), and it gives me very nice logs whenever someone fails to connect, and I have been able to tweek the acceptable settings so that a wide range of clients can connect.
The piece I would first suspect would be "mschaps" vs. "chaps v2".
Thks for your reply. I am using Mac OS X 10.3.4. Is there any log file in the mac os x to check the vpn connection problem? Is there any setting I need to set for the VPN connection?

For 6 months I have been using http://www.sunvpn.com/ and works great for my internet browsing. It gave me the capability to open blocked websites from my ISP. The connection is fast and stable that is why I prefer this than others.
