are both your networks going out through the ipcop box?

i think that the problem is not with your ipcop box, but with the ms server's settings governing the vpn connection. you need to talk to the administrator of that server (is it you?). there is a setting in "routing and remote acccess" covering the vpn connection for idle time prior to disconnecting, and another that covers session time, one of them has been set to 3 minutes. you could determine for yourself which one it is by using the connection during the 3 minutes and see if you stay connected. a 3 minute session time would be pretty stupid (though possible), i suspect it is the idle time that is disconnecting you...

Thanks for your reply.. but I am not really using IPCOP for VPN, but
just for a nice firewall service... I have an MS box on the other side
that is the VPN server...  I was just wondering who out there is using
this same configuration and runs into the VPN connection dropping after
about 3 minutes of connecting through the IPCOP firewall.. We have two
separate networks with the same VPN connection issue...

Thanks

It didn't work at all in earlier 1.4.x versions, so I junked it, and use
an openvpn server behind the firewall.
