I recieve many calls for the dial up connection not working with Windows Vista & till date i was not able to make even a single connection work on windows vista as even after checking all parameteres still the connection fails & further windows vista after diagnosis does not revert back with any error & says it was unable to find any error. So please advise as how to troubleshoot these as the customer are really pissed off due to the same & regret taking Windows Vista as an OS. (High Urgency)

I am having the same scenario with a few of our clients as well.
- Dial up the correct number
- enter the correct username (verified via service provider's support line)
- enter the correct password (ditto...)
- good dialup
- good handshake
- good connection
- starting login
****ERROR: Username or Password Invalid on the domain

have tried deleting and manually recreating the DUN entry, verified that the checkbox for sending windows domain info is NOT checked...

I'm at the end of my rope here! HELP!!

guys, i just saw this one in the mskb at support.microsoft.com while looking for something else. if i can find it again, i'll post it. but maybe there is new info there on this issue, if you haven't checked lately.
You have my sincere sympathy dealing with those p-o'd users.

Have you checked there under the Connections tab and settings? I know on ours there can be nothing in the domain box under the username and password at the bottom; plus our users have to log in with their email address instead of just the username. :)

goto control panel click on windows firewall and turn off firewall , disable all antivirus and firewall programs, ask ur isp to reset ur password and click on star--connect to--- setup a new connection or network---dial up connection--- type ur local access phone no (add area code if u need to dial areacode)---- type ur email address and password and click on dial u should get connected
