Hi, XP Pro, cable modem, internet access, a CISCO VPN client will not
connect. What might be causing this problem? I remember in previous
version of cisco client I had to enter a port number into the windows
firewall.


Thanks in advance

Disable the windows firewall entirely and see if it works. No point in
fiddling with a program if you don't know if it's the problem.

Cable modem and no firewall. Guess how long will it take to become a zombie?

Contact support at the host end of the VPN tunnel and ask for advice.

Just to check obviously. Then reenable it back to normal. Or better yet
get a *real* firewall program.

You would finally screw this person, it might take a full minute, but
you would get what you've been working at all this time.
