To create a connection on XP that uses XP's VPN client:

1. Open the Network Connections folder.
2. Click "Create a new connection".
3. Click Next.
4. Click "Connect to the network at my workplace".
5. Click Next.
6. Click "Virtual Private Network connection".
7. Click next and follow the remaining prompts.
