After installing SP2 of XP, these machines can no longer connect to a watchguard firewall using pptp. it says invalid user name and password even though we are 100% sure that is not te problem.
Anybody had the same problem and could solve it?

  What are you using to authenticate you users at the end? We have a Watchguard Firebox II and PPTP packets go through fine to a Win2k3 RRAS server, apart from if you have a fixed IP. Then we have issues with the firewall, but only sometimes. I believe the Firebox II firewalls to be whack.
