I am using ISA Server 2000 at work.

I had it do a VPN to my network.

At home I set up a VPN connection from my XP Pro box.

It connects not problem but while I am connected to the VPN I have no internet/browser access.

ALSO

when connected to the VPN I cannot browse the network I can go to explorer and enter in machine names and move around.
 
Being able to surf the net and VPN at the same time is referred to as Split Tunneling. It is a very large security risk, as it allows any program with access to the internet on your machine, access to the VPN tunnel as well... meaning if your machine (or anyone else who access's the VPN) has a Trojan or virus on it, it can and probobaly will propogate through the VPN tunnel.

Can I map a VPN drive and when someone clicks on it can I have the VPN connection automatically start happen.
