Though he says that when he brings down the ADSL link the vpn works fine
which means the DUN on his windows is fine.. read the IMPORTANT NOTE at the
bottom of his message....

i guess you are using win98 client. 
uninstall all the damn adapters on that and then go to control panel, 
add remove programs/ windows startup menu/ communications, add vpn support. 
and don't do the same from control panel, network, properties add vpn
adapter.

And whats that? 
I searched the hole web, but I could find nothing! 


IMPORTANT: when I cut my dsl line (with /etc/rc.d/adsl stop) it works, but 
not over the internet ;-)! 


Any help would be very nice!
