The VPN Server on Windows 2000 Advance Server is all setup.
I can authenticate fine from my Windows XP box to the VPN Server on 2000.

Here is my easy question that I need some one to answer.

On my taskbar in Windows XP.........
There is a Icon for my nic card, that show Transmit and Receive.


Now, when I authenticate to the VPN Server, I get
another "Transmit and Receive" icon on the Windows XP taskbar, that lights up "from time to time"
but it is not a steady stream of data, like the other nic icon.

Is this normal? I can see some data going thru the "VPN Tunnel"
from time to time, but it is not as steady stream as the "regular" nic icon.

I just want to make sure that all my network data is going thru the tunnel, and is somewhat encryted.
Thanks for helping me out with this.

I experience the same thing with the same server/client configuration. Would be nice to know the answer to that question aswell.
