RE: VPN's and character limits

Hi Mark,

Thanks for posting!

I understand that you have built an ISA server as VPN server. When you set
up the VPN client on a Windows XP, you can only input 14 characters in the
authentication windows. If I have misunderstood your concerns, please feel
free to let me know.

Based on my research, the authenticate box of VPN client has 15 characters
limitation other than 14 characters due to NetBIOS name limitation.
Actually, based on my test, I suspect that you have input the wrong user
name or password which will prompt the authenticate box. Also, as a
workaround, you may leave the domain input box as blank. Input the username
as Domain\user and password.

Hope the information helps!

Thanks & Regards,

Jason Tan
