MS RRAS and RouterOS 2.9, PPP client address problem

Hello everyone

My problem: cannot get IP address allocation from MSs’ Win2K AS RRAS to PPP client, through the router, (in order to make logon scripts work over VPN). Error message is “TCP/IP CP reported error 738: The server did not assign an address.”

  • PPP (default-encription) profile setup without local/remote addresses
  • PPTP and L2TP servers enabled and using default-encription PPP profile
  • PPTP-in and L2TP-in interfaces defined
    Initially, couple of users (PPP secrets) were defined with static (remote) IP addresses and that worked just fine. But, to make logon scripts work, user has to logon to LAN domain.

Then, on the LAN Domain Controler I enabled Microsofts’ RRAS, with Radius server. Radius accounting on router is enabled (for ppp and DHCP).

At logon, user authorisation goes OK (Radius monitoring shows all of the requests were accepted, no rejections) but DC’s RRAS does not receive request from remote client, therefore no IP address is being allocated and client gets above mentioned error.

I tried both DHCP Relay and staticly defined address scope. Also tried static address on client and few other things that came to mind but nothing worked.

Anyone has any suggestions how could I resolve this :question:


Thanx in advance
Regards

ddi you ever resolve this? i’m having the same issue…

Add the local address (IP of the VPN Server) in the ppp profile you use, leave the remote address out as this will be added from DHCP or some IP Pool in the Radius I guess.
