Enabled VPN server on win2k server box. How to set user perm
I went to routing and remote access console and enabled the 2k server as a vpn server, and it works. I cant find in there though how to set exactly which users have access. Does it only allow user accounts that can Log on locally (Admns) ?? or is there somehting I am missing.

Previously I have used 2k pro for vpn and it's done quite differently.

Good links, thanks. I believe a little bit of my problem is the strange configuration I have. I have an NT 4 PDC and a win2k Standalone. As you know, the Win2k cannot be a BDC.
It was strange because the remote ccess snapin was saying it required an active directory domain to get authorized, which i do not have at this site. When I tested the vpn wih the admin account, it did indeed conect and function properly.
it was at this point I asked for how to setup user access because I did not want just any user to be able to connect. If only users with Log on locally rights can get on, then that is fine as it is for administration only.

Glad to hear ... any particular reason you have not migrated to Windows 2000?
ADMT is rather concise and highly capable to move a large base of users.
