Hi John, I don't think so , the client is connecting to the server and getting most of the way through the connection process according to the server log. I would think that a DNS problem would cause no connection to be made at all and a time out error to occur - which does happen as expected if the VPN client is not running or a bogus server is supplied I would also expect this to happen with both machines. My guess is that some dll or other component has gotten corrupted somewhere although I have no idea which that might be. For now I have moved my development efforts from the problem machine to the OK machine as my dev machine will be getting a re-install shortly.
