Hi folks!

I have two ISA servers that are connected this way:

Internal Network--ISA---DSL router----Internet----DSL router---ISA-Internal 
Network

Both DSL routers are set to forward all inbound traffic to the ISA Server´s 
public NIC. BTW, they are both Alcatel Speed Touch Pro modems.

Well, here's what happens when I establish a router-to-router PPTP VPN between 
these two ISA's: I created the connections on RRAS, created credentials on both 
sides and I also created the static routes from one network to another. 
Everything works fine, traffic is routed, it's really fast, but.... it drops 
for no reason every 3 minutes or less.

Here's the event that RRAS generates:

The user SOFTSELL\itatiaia connected on port VPN3-126 on 02/17/2003 at 05:30pm 
and disconnected on 02/17/2003 at 05:31pm.  The user was active for 1 minutes 
36 seconds.  0 bytes were sent and 0 bytes were received. The port speed was 
10000000.  The reason for disconnecting was user request.

Note that this happens even if I have traffic on the tunnel. 

Both servers have SP3 and ISA SP1 applied. I couldn't find any remote access 
policy that disconnects someone for any reason... everything is unset. Could it 
be inheriting these policies from somewhere else? I tried to use that wizard 
from ISA server to create VPN´s, but the public address is not bound to my 
public NIC, so it won´t work If I import the settings on the other edge. 

Any ideas?
