Hi everyone, wonder if you can help. I have my vpn setup working in te following fashion. I log onto my XP pc by entering user and password. I then double click on the VPN Dialler and press connect and this takes me into my office network. What I would like to do is have the VPN connection automatically connect when I reboot the PC before I have to log in. I have looked on the cisco website but can't find the answer.

Here is the code I have changed in my vpnclient.ini file but it doesn't work. Can anyone please help me?

[main]
AutoInitiationEnable=1
AutoInitiationRetryInterval=3
AutoInitiationList=SJ
EnableLog=1
[SJ]
Network=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (my PIX 501 box external IP address at work as in my profile)
Mask=255.255.255.0
ConnectionEntry=CISCO (my profile cisco.pcf)
RunAtLogon=0
EnableLog=1
XAuthHandler=ipsxauth.exe
IsNoTrayIcon=0
StatefulFirewall=0

Thanks in advance

Solved it. The Network address should be my home network and not the office network.

R

see below for revised script

[main]
AutoInitiationEnable=1
AutoInitiationRetryInterval=3
AutoInitiationList=SJ
EnableLog=1
RunAtLogon=1
DialerDisconnect=1
[SJ]
Network=192.168.254.3
Mask=255.255.255.0
ConnectionEntry=SEAREACH
