I am assuming you have configured the Win2003 server
for IPSec VPN.

You need to open up IP protocols ESP and AH, they are
protocol numbers 50 and 51 respectively. Also port UDP
500 for IKE.

access-list inbound permit esp any host x.x.x.x 
access-list inbound permit ah any host x.x.x.x 
access-list inbound permit udp any host x.x.x.x eq
isakmp 

where x.x.x.x is your Win2003 server IP. But this is
assuming you are not NAT-ing the Win2003 server IP
address.

Why do you need to allow 1723 and GRE, btw??

HTH,

Siddhartha
