<TITLE>VPN issue: Netscreen 5XP and Windows XP client</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<!-- Converted from text/rtf format -->
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Verdana">I have Netscreen 5XP (N5) worked as a firewall in a LAN. On the other site, some Windows XP (WinXP) users use ADSL to connect to Internet. Basically, I just want to have WinXP connect to the LAN by VPN set on N5. WinXP has Netscreen Remote client installed, all things related to VPN is set correctly on N5 (the other machines can connect the LAN properly). The strange thing is that one of the client with WinXP cannot go through anyway. The client log keep complaining </FONT></P>
