Cisco VPN: cannot access network resources

Windows Vista Business:

Last week (until end of play on Thursday 23rd October), my Cisco VPN allowed
me access to corporate DBs (using MS SQL Server or VB/ADO) and Remote
Desktops. Since the weekend however, I cannot.

When I am attached to the network (in the office, not using the VPN), all
works fine. I am able to access shared network folders via the VPN. The
network infrastructure team are adamant that nothing has changed. Windows
has installed some updates since last Thursday, could one of these be the
culprit?

Thanks for listening...

Your Update history will tell you what has been installed and when. You will
probably have to take them all out and install them one at a time till
failure.

Thanks Mark!

Whilst looking at the update history I noticed that new updates where
available - SQL Server 2005 SP1 being one. I installed it, and all is now as
it should be. Strange but satisfying.

Thanks again
Bob
