DescriptionThe following error occurred in the Point to Point Protocol module on port: port number, UserName: user name. The authentication server did not respond to authentication requests in a timely fashion.
Event InformationAccording to Microsoft :
CAUSE 1:


This can occur if the RRAS server has not been set up as a RADIUS client in the IAS MMC.

Resolution:
To resolve this, add the RADIUS clients in the IAS snap-in:
1. Click Start, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then click Internet Authentication Service.
2. Right-click Clients, and then click New Client.
3 In the Friendly Name field, enter a descriptive name.
4 In Protocol, click RADIUS, and then click Next.
5. In the Client Address (IP or Domain Name System [DNS]) field, enter the DNS or IP address for the client. If you use a DNS name, click Verify. In the Resolve DNS Name dialog box, click Resolve, and then select the IP address that you want to associate with that name from "Search Results."
6. If the client is a NAS and you plan to use NAS-specific remote access policies for configuration purposes, for example, a remote access policy that contains vendor-specific attributes, click Client Vendor, and then click the name of the manufacturer. If you do not know the name of the manufacturer or the name is not on the list, click RADIUS Standard. If the RADIUS client is running either Microsoft Windows NT Server or Windows 2000 Server with RRAS, click Microsoft.
7. In the Shared Secret field, enter the shared secret for the client, and then enter it again in the Confirm Shared Secret field.
8. If your NAS supports the use of the signature attribute for verification (with PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAP, or MS-CHAP v2), click to select the Client must always send the signature attribute in the request check box.

CAUSE 2:
This issue occurs because the account you were logged on with at the time you joined the domain did not have administrator privileges on the Windows 2000-based domain. Because of this, services that could easily compromise network security, such as RRAS, deny clients the ability to obtain access to the domain.
