The PPP > level and the SMB/Browsing level are very different problems. --- PPP login without domain works - since they are WinXP Prof and already joined to domain, they can browse but connection to 'persistent' shares will fail unless I force a network browse first.
Dial up just sucks anyway, I hate having to work this through - it takes so long on dial-up for a user to browse through directories, locate and then open a file with Microsoft Work, it hardly seems worth it. In all these years, I have managed to escape setting up dial-in access except for a few situations where I hung a modem off Windows NT Domain controllers and used RAS. Clearly, that is much easier. --- > > As long as we're going for the long ball, is there any methodology to > > support L2TP via Samba?

I didn't realize that Macintosh clients could use PPTP. I know that L2TP support has been added to Panther.
