Hi Bill,

The host PC isn't rebooting I've checked the log events.

The re-connect window appears if I ping the host after the vpn is
re-established I get a response. However the session resets i.e. asks you to
logon again and gives you a fresh session.

This is really annoying me now and I work with many applications open the
host.

Interestingly if I RDP to a Win 2003 server the session re-connects,
therefore I'm thinking it has something to do with XP Pro ?

Any more suggestions would be helpful.

Cheers

Dave
