VPN Connection Wizard Broke

I cannot create a broadband VPN connection. I have tried the fix below and it
doesn't work. I have uninstalled my CISCO VPN software and reinstalled my NIC
drivers and rebooted the machine. I have tried just about everything that
anyone has suggested. Is their a fix for this issue. I have several hundred
machines with the same image installed.

Thanks,
Kent Smith

There is a fix for this, give the group "users" write access to the
following registry key:

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E 972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

You might try a general networking newsgroup for the version of Windows
you are running as this Newsgroup is only for the Microsoft Broadband
networking hardware & the software that comes with it.

If you are running Windows XP you might try
microsoft.public.windowsxp.network_web or if you are running Windows
2000 or might try microsoft.public.win2000.networking but any way you
look at it this is off topic here.

Don't pay malware vendors - boycott Sony & Symantec for helping them

Please do not contact me directly or ask me to contact you directly for

If your question is worth asking, it's worth posting.

If it’s not worth posting you should have done a search on
http://www.google.com/ http://www.google.com/grphp?hl=en&tab=wg&q= or
http://news.google.com/froogle?hl=en&tab=nf&ned=us&q= before wasting our
time.

If I sound hostile or arrogant you need to read the following before

to just has this article I think people should read before posting a
technical question.)
