Any help is better than none.
I tried to see what My Network Places showed but it showed nothing related to the VPN.
Since I was setup as Administrator with NO password, I also set myself a password and rebooted. Still no joy.
It's obviously related to SP2 (both problems), the mapping also directly related to the firewall. My bet is that I need to set something somewhere but I haven't a clue what or where.
cheers

>>I have no idea if the VPN connection is *actually* working when the firewall is ON... I am just going by its "connected" message. The enxt thing I want to do is map the drive and that fails.
>>The above is a 'standard' MS-styled VPN connection.

>>I have another VPN connection through a Cisco facility (via software here, to there) that also says it connects OK, but when I startup RDC it always reports that the connection was broken after appearing to 'just start' RDC (the little tan bar at the top appears, then wait until fail.

>>Both of these work perfectly on my non-SP2 system. The second above doesn't work even with the firewall disabled.
