Why can't I change the sstp vpn's port

Question

I'm trying to change sstp vpn's port by changing the value of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\SstpSvc\Parameters\ConfigStore\ ListenerPort key of my registry but when I change it the regedit show me an error that says Cannot edit ListenerPort: Error writhing the values's new contents.

So how can I resolve the problem?

@kafka How can I understand that. I stopped the service and tried again but there were no changes! — ahmadali shafiee, Mar 14 '13 at 16:48
what are you changing the port from/to? netstat -an from the command line tells you what ports you're already listening on — kafka, Mar 14 '13 at 16:50

Please add a bit of explanation of why it fails, and why the proposed solution works. – vonbrand Mar 14 '13 at 10:00
take look at the permissions on HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\SstpSvc\Parameters\ConfigStore\ ListenerPort there are no write permissions for Administrator - add write permissions , change the port an may be revoke permissions – kadde Mar 18 '13 at 09:01

You can change SSTP port after VPN server stopped. I tested.

Also, windows client needs special treatment: 1. add hosts rule pointing to localhost by remote server name 2. add port redirection to vpn server use

 netsh interface portproxy add
