That is certainly the case with a proxy server setup. For a W2k/XP
client, proxy settings are connection specific. So to use a proxy server
over a RAS/VPN connection, you need to set the proxy settings for the
connection. You can do it from Control Panel | internet options. This allows
you to have different proxy settings for local and remote proxy servers.
