From: PieBald on 23 Mar 2010 12:48 Does XP OEM Home Edition support VPN server. I have two system both fail to enable VPN server at the same point with the same error. When setting allow incoming calls they with : - Rounting and Remote Access service was unable to start refer to event viewer. This reports error 340(0x154). As suggested by numerous forums I have started services, enable NETBIOS, and even checked INETSRV folder for files, mine is empty. Does this version of XP support VPN server or not, if not can I get the files to enable it or am I going to have to use a 3rd party option All help appreciated.
From: LD55ZRA on 23 Mar 2010 22:04 It doesn't matter whether your version is OEM or not because XP Home edition does support VPN. I suggest this article and follow step by step instructions to see if you can make it work: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314076 hth "PieBald" <PieBald(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:842F4B7D-755E-4703-BC26-748756812511(a)microsoft.com... > Does XP OEM Home Edition support VPN server. > > I have two system both fail to enable VPN server at the same point with > the > same error.

From: PieBald on 24 Mar 2010 06:08 LD55ZRA, please excuse my fumblings, but, that KB article relates to then setting up the client side of VPN on a system. As pointed out in my original scope I wish to set one of my PC's up as a VPN SERVER and hence this is the problem I am encountering. Thank very much for the update. I you require any further information please don't hessitate to ask. "LD55ZRA" wrote: > It doesn't matter whether your version is OEM or not because XP Home edition > does support VPN.

XP Home. regardless Retail or OEM versions, have not been designed to be a "end-point" for VPN or Remote Desktop Protocol.

smlunatick Thanks for the prompt reply, it's appreciated. It does seem that others including MVP's etc seem to think that OEM Home edition had this capability, and more confusingly, that they had actually set it up on these systems. Strange But once again that for straightening that out I can now continue to look at other options, if you have any idea please point me in the right direction.
