I am trying to create a IPSec Policy that will allow the use of a
Pre-Share key for VPN only. I have created a VPN Security Policy in
Local Security settings under the IPSEC Policies on Local Computer.

I have it set up to permit traffic for remote acces using a pre-share
key. Filter action is to negotiate security. Connection type is Remote
Access. I have the pre-share key in.

Now it doesn't work. It blocks all traffic because when I VPN, I cannot
map drives. If I change the filter action to Permit then it leaves it
open and I can VPN and map drives without using a pre-share key. I
guess I am lost or missing a step as to where I tell it to ask or look
for the pre-share key.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? I bought a book and have
spent days searching groups and the internet.
