Back when I was connecting to a nortel vpn when I was with AT&T, this 
was the case.  Again, I believe it was because the connections must be 
made from different ips.  If you're trying to connect from two machines 
that are natted through the same firewall, you'll both appear to be 
coming from the same ip, causing confusion on the part of the vpn server.
