Hi,

Had a solid tunnel setup and then it dropped:

Checking the Netgear VPN status it showed phase 1 as idle and phases 2
as connected. Checking Novell Remote Manager VPN monitoring it also
showed the connection as up. I have them both setup as intiate and
respond. Is there a way I can get them to recognize the connection
dropped and re-setup? To get them going I had to drop and reload IKE on
the BM server.

Thanks,

Will

Perhaps it would be easier to just set up a slow, continuous ping on the 
BM server (in autoexec) to keep the connection up?
