Craig,

I am running Windows 2000 Pro. I installed a Nortel Contivity client first.
When I tried to install a Cisco VPN client a few weeks later, the Cisco
install process insisted on uninstalling the Nortel client before it would
install the Cisco client, and I could not get around that. When I called
the networking buy at the customer which sent me the Cisco client, he told
me that I can't have two VPN clients installed on one machine at the same time.

It's interesting that you have both Contivity and Cisco installed on your
machine, but I can't get them both installed on mine. I wonder if this is
because you are running Windows XP and I am running Windows 2K? Also, do
you have one NIC or more than one NIC in your XP machine?
