VPN Problem, PLEASE HELP!

Hi all!
I've got a problem to create a vpn connection from my w2k client. In
"Network and Dial-up Connections" i create a new VPN conncetion via the
wizard. But the icon,that will be created has a red X and the staus says
"Unavailable-device missing". When i doubleklick the icon the perefences
opens and the "login" window doesn't appear.When i start the rasphone.exe in
system32 and i try to connect i get error 609 ->"A deviec type was specified
that doesn't exist". Could someone help me, i'm trying to create a vpn over
ethernet, and is it possible to reinstall the RAS thing??

Big thx

I had worked on the similar case one moth ago. It seems to me your system
doesn't have WAN miniport. Check this page for the details:
