Default VPN Failure

Help. My VPN connection to my office fails.
I receive error 800 when I attempt to connect.
I have checked the setting and they are all ok.

I can connect using VPC running xp.

So what is preventing Vista from connecting?

Thanks

Are you using some type of network security software - like Norton or
OneCare? If so, you need to adjust those software packages to allow
your VPN connection to work.

In may cases, VPN error is port issue, especially GRE. Make sure the router
in the office is PPTP pass through. Or these search result may help. Please
post back with the result.
