Please read the release notes. When you change the network configuration of Vista it will take 30 to 120 seconds for the AFS Cache Manager to be able to re-establish its Netbios name binding with the network stack. If you still can't access things outside the campus network when the VPN is active, it is because the VPN directs all traffic to the campus network and their firewall prevents access to off site cells. It is New Year's Eve. See you next year. Jeffrey Altman
