Vista VPN server?

Default Vista VPN server?

On Windows XP, I have my home system set up so that remote desktop is only
accessible if I connect into the system with a VPN connection first.

Under Vista, I can't find any way to enable the VPN server so Vista can
accept incoming VPN connections. What am I missing or where can I do this?

Thanks.

I got it set up. I went to the Network Connections folder. Then I went to
the File menu and chose "New Incoming Connection".

If your File menu isn't available, click "Organize -> Layout -> Menu Bar".

THANK YOU! This was REALLY hard to find. It wasn't in the Vista help
anywhere... hope it'll be in the final product...
