I am looking for some help. I am following the documentation regarding creating VPNs for my WinXP users to the M series appliances. I keep running into problems.
First, I tried the certificate approach. (Using Microsoft CertSrv) I installed my CA in the appliance. I then made a request for a "IPSEC" certificate from my CertSrv (according to the documentation) and I installed it onto my machine. When I configure my vpn in winxp to use advanced settings I get a "798 - A certificate could not be found that can be used with this Extensible Authentication Protocol." I think the biggest problem here is that the documentation lacks the appropriate "Configure the Client VPN to utilize the certificate" section. It says plainly how to make the certificate, but it doesn't say what to do afterwards. (how to configure the VPN connection to use the certificate) So I gave up on the certificates. Second, I tried using MS-CHAP Shared secret. Awesomely, the documentation walks how to do this quite well, but for me it doesn't work. I am getting a "789 - The L2TP connection attempt failed because the security layer encountered a processing error during initial negotiations with the remote computer." My proventia logs say nothing other than accepts and other alerts that I like to see. Any suggestions?
