The biggest problem is that I can't dial in to work. I get a funky error message, and then it hangs up. And, to make matters worse, the USB Modem won't work on VMWare Fusion. So, I am stuck with no access from home for now. Here is the error:

I have searched high and low on the Internet, but haven't been able to discover the answer. If you know the answer, please let me know. I appears to be a problem with *nix based machines trying to authenticate with a Windows server.
My new laptop arrived about the right time, too. The old laptop is starting to go into its annual "hardware is dying" mode: the Z key on the keyboard no longer works, and the CD-ROM has stopped reading burned CDs and won't write them.
Computers! Don't you just love them?

hey, i'm heading in that direction myself - none of the arrow keys work and while I can read and write CD's, DVD's no longer an option for me.
It looks like your Windows server either doesn't support Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)—not surprising, it's an Apple thing, I believe—or it can't handle compressed connections. Try running it without compression first.
