HI All

Weird one here I cannot figure out. I run a Linux Server with FreeSwan for IPSec VPN access. I have several laptops with built in Bluetooth and VPN access. With Bluetooth turned off, they can access VPN no problem. However, I recently purchased a Dell notebook that did not come with Bluetooth. I opted for a USB version and now my VPN no longer works. It connects fine but something is blocking the authentication. Even if I turn off the Bluetooth device, unplug it, and stop the Service...still no joy! As soon as I uninstall the Bluetooth drivers and SW...works like a champ. :(

Any help would be appreciated.

TIA,

P'
