Outbound PPTP connection on my home XP Pro machine.  Connecting to my ISA
box at the office.  It's on a DSL, Win2K Server.  At home I have RoadRunner
(Cable modem).  I only recently added the Hotmail service to Outlook Express
(before I only used OE for newsreading) and turns out that for some reason
OE was killing my PPTP connection whenever it checked Hotmail for new
messages.
 
No biggie; when I get the refresh of Outlook 2003 Beta I'll probably move my
Hotmail service back to Outlook anyhow.

Hi Ben,
 
Just to make this clear, is this an outbound VPN connection to an external
PPTP server, or an inbound connection to your ISA/VPN server?
 
Thanks!
Tom

Oddly enough I discovered that my VPN connection would drop if I started
Outlook Express with a Hotmail account configured.  Long as I don't start
OE, problem doesn't happen.
 
Go figure.
