Hi, I have two win7 enterprise portables, both installed with the same DVD. When attempting to connect with my workplace, it does not work with one of them. After some searches, I noticed the the IPsec policy agent and the IKE an AuthIP IPsec keying modules services are not installed on that particular machine :-( How could this happen, and, more importantly, how can I install them later on? Only difference I see, however not related to IPSec IMHO, is the fact that the machine is not in a domain... Anybody any advise or experienced the same missing services?

Please open services.msc and check if the services are in the list. If they are not listed, I suspect that the installation DVD has problems. you may find a fine DVD and run In-place Upgrade with it.Please remember to click Mark as Answer on the post that helps you, and to click Unmark as Answer if a marked post does not actually answer your question.
