Hi,

I recently spun up a VM for me via Microsoft Azure portal. I am using the VM as a primary workstation because of resource limitations on our office thin client PC's.

The VPN fails to connect using PPTP (via Azure VM). My home office PC connects to the office VPN via PPTP without hassles. I also added outbound and inbound rules on the firewall and on the network interface, nothing seems to work.

Please advise regards
 
When you say it won't connect.
Do you receive a reason why? Like authentication problem, or address unknown?
Did you try to ping your office VPN Server form the Azure VM?

A connection between your computer and the VPN server has been established but the VPN connection cannot be completed. Error Code 806 – The most common cause for this failure is that at least one Internet device (for example, a firewall or router) between your computer and the VPN server is not configured to allow Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) protocol packets. If the problem persists, contact your network administrator or Internet Service Provider.
