[pptp-server] NetLogon and VPN/DUN

I have discovered the problem:

I was running off a notebook. If the ethernet card is in, the machine
attempts to log on. Even if it fails, that is it - the computer won't
attempt a log on again until a restart (or log off from the start menu and
log on again).

So it seems that there is no way for a stand-alone machine which is already
on one network locally to run a login script over the VPN link - even if it
isn't logged into its normal network.

Hmm... my samba server and my VPN server are both on the same machine, so I
have the same machine doing both. I can run the logon scripts manually, but
they don't just run on connection.

I have the same problem, the only way I could get that to work was to have
the vpn server also handle domain logons.
