RE: Modifying default behaviour of MS VPN client

We've implemented this already to prevent users from saving their
passwords.  The problem is not that.  If I enter NO username or
password, the client will go back to the cached login credentials and
try those which, lo and behold, work as the VPN server is authenticating
to AD.  What I need is a way to tell the client NOT to use cached
credentials when told to connect with no user name and password.

Thanks,

Scott

Merge this on the registry, it will force the user to enter a user name
and password and they cannot save the password.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\RasMan\Parameters]
"DisableSavePassword"=dword:00000001

I have a situation on my hands where users have no username and password
info in the MS VPN connection dialog but when they hit connect the
client will use the username and password of the currently logged on
user which grants them a successful authentication.  Anyone know how to
disable this behaviour and require that the user explicitly enter their
username and password in the connection dialog for each VPN connection?

Thanks,

Scott
