I am running Vista Home premium. The problem I have began after 1 April
2009(appropriately enough). I can make a VPN connection to my work server but cannot now remotely connect to my work XP machine. Also when I make the VPN conenction the internet on this home vista machine stops working. I have been able to avoid the problem by doing a system restore to 30 March but the gremlin keeps mysteriously returning overnight and I have now lost the 30 March restore point. It is obviously caused by some update (one would have thought that they would test these before they send them out - or am I being naive?). Any thoughts out there? PS I am only moderately IT literate. PSS I do not have any problems making the VPN and RDC connections on my old jurassic XP computer here. It's just this new Vista thing. |

What's the VPN error code? If you don't have the error code, check any
errors in the Event Viewer. -- Bob Lin, MS-MVP, MCSE & CNE Networking, Internet, Routing, VPN Troubleshooting on http://www.ChicagoTech.net How to Setup Windows, Network, VPN & Remote Access on http://www.HowToNetworking.com "nmostyn" wrote in message ...

It is not reporting an error. It thinks it is doing its job just fine
