Hi I'm the one that started this thread, and I see a
similar behavior happening with my Pocket PC, i.e., it
disconnects from VPN even when I don't want it to. I'm
not sure but the reason may be that when the Pocket PC
tries to access resources outside of your private
network, it automatically disconnects from VPN and
switches back to the regular internet connection.

I don't really know, but if you connects to your VPN
server and just leave it as it is without doing anything,
I think it should stay connected. Only when you navigate
to some page or try to run some program the connection
gets dropped.

That's only my observation, and we would appreciate it
very much if somebody that knows the stuff could explain
these things in detail for us. (Right? TWhite?)
