    Guys,

    I'm using Cisco VPN 4.6.00.0049 to connect to a company VPN. When I am on any other network connection outside of the office, I can connect to the VPN just fine.

    However, now I am actually sat in the office where the VPN is hosted, I am getting the following error when trying to connect...


    Secure VPN connection terminated locally by the Client.
    Reason 412: The remote peer is no longer responding.


    - I am in the office and connecting to the "dirty external internet wireless type connection". I am a contractor, so I can't just plug into the office network.
    - I am running the VPN client on a WinXP VPC hosted on my Win7 Laptop.
    - I have internet access on the VPC and I can ping the VPN host.
    - I have tried totally disabling firewalls from the WinXP VPC. No change.
    - Other company users who have laptops can unplug from the network, connect to the same wireless network and connect to VPN just fine, apparently. I havent seen this testing myself, I'm just told it works. Although I actually suspect that the company users would be connecting to the standard wireless network not the "dirty external".

    - If I went outside and walked about 20 yards to the local McDonalds and connected there, I would have no problems with the current configuration.

    Can anybody point me inthe right direction for this please?

    Thanks in advance,
    Bob

    Bob, i'm using Cisco 5.0 so i can't test something similar, could you tell me if you're connecting Wirelessly in the McDonalds?

    Going back to the problem, you mean you're inside the building where the VPN Server is placed, and connecting to "dirty wireless" receive the described error right?

    keep in contact.:zzz
