Can someone share his configuration of nlite which can successfully using VPN connection?
Thanks a lot.

Those look suspicious to me:

Drivers

ATM Support

Modem Support

Extensible Storage Engine (not likely)

Application Layer Gateway (also not likely)


Retry without removing them.

The installation repeated with the following three items NOT removed:
ATM Support
Modem Support
Application Layer Gateway

But still the vpn is not working.
