Can anyone help with making a VPN connection from an Apple Ipad to an SBS
2008 server. The terminology in the Ipad VPN configuration screen are
confusing.

I'm using the PPTP protocol.
"Server": the ip address of the sbs network??
"Account": the username on the sbs network??
"Password": the password of the user on the sbs network??
RSA: Off??
Allow all traffic: No??

but using those settings I cannot connect. I have no trouble connecting from
a Windows machine using the standard vpn connector.

Any help would be appreciated. Apple seems clueless, I've had two support
calls to them and no one I talked to could point me to anything of help.
