Hi Tim, Why would it be a security issue?

I have a ISA 2000/VPN server. When I checked the property for the port node in RRAS mmc, I saw WAN miniport (PPPOE) along with WAN miniport (PPTP) and WAN miniport (LT2P). LT2P is not used. We have a full T1 line and not DSL/cable modem. Why do I have the WAN miniport (PPPOE)? Under the 'used by' column, it says 'none' and 'number of ports used' column, it says 1. I've seen in a newsgroup that this is dangerous and must be removed. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks ts __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
