    Merge this on the registry, it will force the user to enter a user name
    and password and they cannot save the password.

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\RasMan\Parameters]
    "DisableSavePassword"=dword:00000001

    Subject: Modifying default behaviour of MS VPN client

    I have a situation on my hands where users have no username and password
    info in the MS VPN connection dialog but when they hit connect the
    client will use the username and password of the currently logged on
    user which grants them a successful authentication. Anyone know how to
    disable this behaviour and require that the user explicitly enter their
    username and password in the connection dialog for each VPN connection?

    Thanks,

    Scott
