Hi All,

I have a big dilema. I have a VPN connection which I use
in order to collect my email, and input my expenses for
work. The VPN client is Cisco Systems VPN Client Version
4.0.2(D).

History.
I configured the client and set up the connection via
broadband. I connected to the network ok but it "dropped
me out" after around a minute. I contacted AOL my ISP,
and they explained that they did not support VPN, and
that I could try to uninstall and reinstall (AOL Ver 9.0)
give that a go. After some soul searching and hair
pulling I decided to got for the Dial up VPN option.

This was setup ok yesterday and I was able to connect and
check my email and submit my expenses. This morning I
logged on to the VPN connection and I am getting the same
problem I was getting under broadband. Error
message...... Secure VPN Connection terminated locally by
the Client. Reason: Failes to establish connection to
your ISP. What baffles me is that yesterday it was hunky
dori, this morning it is not working?

I have Win XP pro as my operating system.

Please could someone help.

Kind Regards

Peter Flint.
