It was easy to setup a groupname and group password to enable simple vpn access, but is there a way to create accounts in the PIX itself to have individual accounts so that's it's simple to enable and disable access to users?

I thought it was in the LOCAL database, but that only seems to be for access to the PDM or the console, not for VPN access.
 
If you have a radius server (i.e. w2k server with active directory) do a radius check so when the user comes in with the groupname/password they get a 2nd prompt for their windows username/password from the server, on the server enable remote access. End result is to turn 'on' or 'off' access is controlled via the 'enable' on the dial-in tab for each user. Also eliminates teaching other admins how to use the pix since all is controlled via the dial-in tab. You will need to install the internet authenication service on the w2k server.

You can define local users on the pix for VPN Access. I currently dont have the time to do an example but for short you will set you authentication server defined in your policy to local. Is this IPSEC, PPTP?
 
it's IPSEC, so I guess it is a LOCAL database. I guess I should choose "extended client authentication" (i think that's it) in the PDM VPN wizard.
