Hi Mark,
 
If the machine is a member of the domain, the user can log on with local
or domain credentials. I'm betting that you are logging in with an admin
account. Just make sure your VPN user passwords meet complexity
requirements and you'll be in good shape. Of course, you can implement
L2TP/IPSec and use user certificate authentication :-)  
 
HTH,
Tom

        Hello,
         
        I just set up my ISA Server for inbound VPN calls, as per
http://www.isaserver.org/tutorials/Configuring_ISA_Server_For_Inbound_VP
N_Calls.html. Everything works but my concern is security. All anyone
need do is guess an authentic domain username/password and they are
"in". Not even the domain name is necessary. Is there a way to secure
this authentication? Thanks.
         
        Mark
