Q: Nortel VPN connects and disconnects immediately. Error 6699 with PPTP

Hi All,

 

I am using OS X Mavericks on my mac. I tried to connect to PPTP internet connection using the default client and paid clients like Shimo.I get connected and after a minute I get disconnected with 6699 error. I read a lot of discussions about this issue and I realised this issue exists from Pather days. Please help me out with this if you have a working solution.

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9)
