Windows XP - VPN

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.work_remotely (More info?)

Don't know about Cisco per se, but I know a lot of VPN solutions will see
that there's already an active connection from your home network's public IP
and thus can't establish the tunnel again. If you disable the VPN connection
on the 2k computer, wait a few minutes, and then try on the XP machine, does
it work then?
