Symptoms:
No PPTP / L2TP connection to a Barracuda NG Firewall possible with Windows Vista / Windows 7.
Solution:
In Windows Vista / Windows 7 there where a few changes concerning the remote access from security perpective. 40/56 bit RC4 encryption is removed by default from Vista / 7 as well as LHS server. This means PPTP/L2TP now only supports 128 bit RC4 encryption by default. So if you VPN server or VPN client doesn?t support 128 bit encryption, you can still get 40/56 bit RC4 back.
If you still want to do get 40/56 bit RC4 crypto back, use the following registry key:
For PPTP:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Rasman\Parameters\AllowPPTPWeakCrypto and change it to "1".
