Avoid callback prompt with VPN?

Hi, - how do I change server settings so that users with Callback Options
set to Set by Caller does not get the Callback prompt when connecting
through VPN (PPTP)?

I know the users can just press Cancel, but it is very confusing for the
users to get a callback prompt after a VPN dialup, where it is completely
irrelevant. I won't turn off the Callback option on the users accounts,
because they need it when they are traveling and need to dial-in to a RAS
server with a phone modem pool we also have.

I also know the uses can disable callback on their XP-clients in Dial-up
Preferences, but that is a bad solution because some of them will forget to
enable callback when they should use it to save phone costs.

What I have tried:

1) Disabling LCP on the PPP tab, RAS server Properties. But then I can't
make VPN-connections at all, for some unknown reason.

2) I made a RAS policy with Ignore-User-Dialin-Properties, similar to what
is descriped here:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;289264 (We don't use
IAS, so I made it on the VPN RAS Server). It work's, I got rid of the
callback prompt - but then any user can make a VPN connection, also those
which have their Remote Access Policy set to Deny Access. Probably because
"Deny Access" is part of "Dialin Properties".

The VPN RAS Server is intergrated in ISA Server. Windows 2000 Server, latest
service pack. Clients are Windows XP, latest service pack.

Any suggestions?

Peter :)
