Windows VPN
Hi,
Does anyone have a simple guide to setting up a VPN that can connect through the internet on a Windows 2012 R2 server. I can get the VPN working but gettign it to connect to the internet fails everytime. I have a Linux VPN that does this but want to use the windows one as its in uk? Cheers

Look into this https://www.softether.org/ it's very simple to configure.
thanks. looks interesting on first glance.... will take a proper look tomorrow. Would prefer to configure the Windows VPN properly. Looked at all the microsoft write ups but just cant get the Nat setup right
best using openvpn.
You can use Routing & Remote Access role available in Windows for this. It is highly configurable and stable to use. Microsoft has steps for this available at: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd469733.aspx
