VPN - RRAS won't set ports

I need some help quickly on this please. TIA.


I've followed the smallbizserver.net instructions to set my SBS2k up for VPN
access. I have allowed VPN connections using ISA and configured RRAS for
VPN.

In RRAS, I have right-clicked Server ports and configured WAN Miniport PPTP
for Remote Access Connections (inbound only) for 5 ports. I have configured
WAN Miniport L2TP for 0 ports. When I click apply or OK I receive the
following error message:

"Routing and Remote Access
The port information cannot be saved. Cannot complete this function.
(800703eb)"

I'm only given an Ok option. When I click this, the port information hasn't
been saved.


On RRAS server properties, the following options are selected:
General Tab: enable as router, LAN & Demand Dial, Remote Access Server
IP Tab: Enable IP Routing, Allow IP-based remote access, assign address by
DHCP


When I run ICW, I get the following error. Would this be related?

"The Internet Connection Wizard was interrupted because of an error or user
intervention. Details have been recorded in the file "icwlog.txt," which can
be found in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft BackOffice\Support directory.

Would you like to cancel this action?

Click Yes to exit the wizard and restore your pre-wizard settings.
Click No to proceed with the wizard and configure any remaining components.
Click cancel to close the wizard immediately without restoring your
pre-wizard settings."


Thanks

There seems to be some previous chatter in the newsgroups about the
following procedure being a "fix" but not much follow-up as to whether it
actually works...

Threads found with a more general Google search on 800703eb...

There are some indications that USB modems/drivers might be problematic.
Iif you're using a USB modem, you may want to download the latest
drivers/firmware.
