VPN Works only at Night???
----------
I used to use VPN but it just stopped working about 3 months ago. I would try to logon every so often but it would just "timeout" trying to connect. A few weeks ago it started working again then sopped. Now it only works at night. I very frustrated and confused. Here is the log file from a sucessful connect at night and an unsuccessful day time connect. Any ideas?

Another reason for this error message
----------
Sounds unlikely that this is exactly what you're running into, but with Cisco client 5.0 I was getting a "User does not provide any authentication data" error in the log along with an error code 413 because my login password had expired so I was being prompted for a new password and the VPN client didn't know how to handle it. Similar situations cna happen with ftp logons i.e. logon keeps failing even though the user ID and password are good, because the FTP client does not know how to handle the 'change password' prompt.
Maybe in your case there is an extra message or prompt interfering with the logon at specific times?
