Snowpocalyse, VPN and Vista

If you haven't gotten your VPN client and Vista working, then you have to go to the office to work, or else.

Your IT probably blames you for messing up the VPN client like as usual and ask you to re-install or reboot, and you know in your heart of heart that it isn't you, at least not this one. And no matter how many times you reinstall and reboot it simply won't work.

If you have the fortune to still use Vista, and certain VPN client that gives you 442 error, fear not, you can get it to work and enjoy the snowpocalyse in the comfort of your own domain.

Just follow the instruction here.

Basically you need to
Right click to enable the Cisco Systems VPN Adapter
Right click to Diagnose
Select Reset the network adapter

Try to connect via the VPN client again and you "should" be connected--"should" is a big word that I use very loosely. If not, just haul yourself through mud and snow and head to your cubicle farm where you belong. Good luck.
