So you are using the M$ VPN from XP, right?

Is this other person outside the company like you are as well and
trying to use the same IP you are?  Or are they hitting another IP, or
the 192.186... ?

I have had trouble using the Vista VPN to a Win2003 server lately.  In
all other attempts of VPN access to clients I receive a client install
for the firewall and it has been good.  The M$ VPN for Vista has been
a flop in my tiny attempt to use it.  I just use XP machine to remote
in and it's all good. If you find out the fix let me know.  Thanks.
