Informatics-VPN with Windows 7
Access to the informatics VPN server from Windows clients can be obtained withoud installing additional software. The required packages come with the operating system and can be configured using the following settings:
- "Internet address" of the informatics VPN server is: fbivpn.informatik.uni-hamburg.de
- "Destination name", can be arbitrarily chosen, i.e. "Informatics-VPN"
- "User name" and "Password" refert to your informatics account (z.B. "1musterm"),
- "Domain (optional)" ist not optional, it is obligatory to enter "INFORMATIK" here.
It is recommended to configure your network adapter settings to use the "Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol (SSTP)" instead of using "automatic" configuration.
