I have set up various users with a vpn connection to our
workplace. Howver one user can be conected from any
machine but his own brand new freshly installed xp machine.

The problem is when setting up his vpn connection that he
does not have the dialogue box asking him whether he want
to conect to an exiting connection or dial up a connection
fisrt. thsi box does not appear and I need help to
identify why this is the case. i beleive that his PC is
trying to dial a connection prior to connecting to the vpn
and I do noit wish it to do this.

Any ideas out there besides flatting the hard drive and
strating again?

Thanks

One palce to check to see if the VPN connection is
dialing before making the VPN is to right click on the
VPN connection i con and going to the General tab and
unselecting the "dial another connection first".

One other thing make sure he is connected either over a
wifi or a wired lan before, and has an IP of that lan
before he try's to do a VPN. If he has no IP then the
default alternate dial up connction will be used
automatically. If has has one configured.
