Need help setting up VPN in XP... wont bind to my adapter

[oXide 0]

Hi, for some reaon I cannot get the VPN server to work in XP. When I try to bind the VPN server to my network adapter, I get the following result in event viewer:

 

Unable to add the interface {9A5F4A74-5512-4E03-9B35-6160202F4069} with the Router Manager for the IP protocol. The following error occurred: Cannot complete this function.

 

If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated

So i found out that

{9A5F4A74-5512-4E03-9B35-6160202F4069}

is my firewire adapter.... In the page where I should be able to select the ethernet adapter to accept incomming connections(Incomming Connection Properties) all I see in there is Direct Parallel and WAN Minpot ....

 

I would assume that WAN miniport is the internet via my ethernet adapter but its not. Does XP support hosting VPN over the internet???

Is there a way I can edit the reg and get an entry for my Ethernet adapter in there somehow?

 

I've overcome all the problems w/ my router, firewall, and other BS and this is the last step... any help would be appreciated

 

 

Thanks
