I can't seem to get new users to access VPN on our OS X Server. If I use my login credentials with the VPN connection, everything works. But when I change to a recently created user I get a error window: "VPN Connection Authentication failed.".

OS X 10.7.4 VPN are set to L2TP.

Are there any hidden settings pr anything I am missing?

Have you somehow set things up so you need to add each new user explicitly to a security group to allow VPN? Check the Access tab in server admin to ensure all users are allowed to authenticate for VPN connections.
