    You need to get the remote server to accept your authentication -- you have given your permission to others to connect to you -- NOW those remote access server must accept you.

    VPN (Virtual Private Network) is not to be confused with RA (Remote Assistance) where you can have a friend access your computer to help sorting out problems.

    they did. heres what I did. I, the server, went to the "add new connection" thing, and added, "allow incoming connections," then i set it to the username of the client connection, then set a password. After that, i told the client to connect to my IP. After he connects, I see "one client connected" under my connections. ok...we were connected...what happens now?
