SoftEther VPN User Forum

Hi Guys!
I get the error message (The specified server cannot perform the requested process ) during connection buildup!
In the “properties” at the client (Win 10 Prof.) of my vpn connection I have chosen VPN Type “(SSTP). But there is another point at the clients side “authentication” and I don’t know what I have to activate/check.
Those points are: “Extensible-authentication-protocol (EAP) to apply” which I didn’t activate and
the next checkbox is “allow the following protocols”:
1.) Unencrypted password (PAP)
2.) Challenge Handshake Authenitcation-protocl (CHAP)
3.) Microsft CHAP, version 2 (MS-CHAP v2)
Which checkboxes or protocols do I have to activate???
Some add. information more: During SoftEther’s server establishment I created a user and I chose Password Authentication Settings. And the same User and password I type in during vpn conncetion build up I had generated at the server user administration.

Thank's in advance!

Hi there!, you chose the hard way of getting your VPN connection working!, it's not that easy, user name and password and that's all!, i have no problem with going through configuring your SSTP connection, but, why don't you just use the SE Client ?, it's easier & more nicer and of course, user-friendly.


Good luck (:

Why this description at SoftEther's website when we should use SE client??

Please choose PAP.

Did you enable VPN Azure function on your server?

No, at the end of the day, I didn't enable VPN Azure function on my server, because this didn't enable the VPN connection.

Did you encounter any problem when selecting PAP?
