VPN PPTP connection not working correctly

Hello,

I am having trouble connecting to my Microsoft Windows 2003 VPN server from
my Vista Client. I have the connection configured to use the default gateway
on the remote network. However the default route for the (VPN PPP) adapter
is never set. The adapter is assigned a IP address and a Network Mask but no
default route. Under Windows XP a default route is assinged to the adapter
so IP traffic can flow.

Can anyone explain to me how to fix this problem. Not being able to use VPN
networks is a real problem.

This is Windows Visa Ultimate. Connecting to a Windows 2003 VPN server.

Thanks

Bill
