Hi people

I've been tearing my hair out over this so hoping someone can give me a hand before I go bald!
I've setup my Microsoft ISA 2006 server to allow remote access via VPN, I can connect via VPN locally within the network however when I try external it fails, my ISA server is behind another ISA server which has apparently been setup to allow traffic from port 500, 4500 and 1701 however when I look at my firewall log it only shows requests coming to port 500 and 4500 as shown below, none to port 1701.

VPN Setup:
L2TP Protocol
IPSec Preshared Key (for now.. will update to certificate based auth later on)

Network Layout:
Internet --> 1st ISA --> 2nd ISA (the one within my building) --> Internal Network

Snippet from ISA Firewall Log - Note IP address have been removed

Am guessing that the 1701 (L2TP Client) port has not been opened on the first ISA server that is causing this problem however when I confirmed whether it was open I was told it was... but with the fact I am not even seeing L2TP client hitting the firewall nevermind being even allowed or disallow I still think its blocked.

Anyone got any ideas? :D

Thanks
