Re: VPN Connection Push

As I recall...  In NT 4.0 there was a phone book publishing wizard for doing
exactly what you are asking.  It has been quite a while since I looked at it
though.  (2+ years)  You answered the wizard questions and it would build a
package that you could send to your field folks.  They would run it, and it
would add the new RAS connection with the settings you had specified.

I have not seen a 2000/XP equiv.  The 2000 and XP connection wizard is
pretty good.  I support about 100 mobile users.  Some of them can barely
turn the laptop on.  I just published a little "how-to" with screen shots on
how to set it up.  I got "Huh?" calls from exactly the people I expected
would call, and no calls from the people I would not expect to call.  So I
don't really think it matters how "dummy-proof" you make the install.  The
ones that always call you will still always call you.

You, of course, already know this.  :)

I have a client in vpn set up and it is working very well. Thanks for all
the people that helped with the Novell/IPX problems.
The last challenge I have is to push the VPN connection settings to all my
remote users and I am wondering if that can be accomplished via a registry
key import? I have a document with the values for the 5 screens you have to
fill in during the client vpn wizard (all windows 2000 pro) but my boss
wants it to be even more dummy proof than that.

Anyone have experience with this? No AD, so no GPO. NT4 domain.

Much Thanks

Chris
