I have been using an RVL200 with 1.1.12.1 firmware under Windows 2000 IE6 for several month now.
No problems... I recently just crashed and now I can not get a tunnel to come up. I can connect
just fine, but when I click to get the tunnel built, nothing is downloaded and I get a pop up error
indicating that the page is looking for a tunnel class (XTunnel1) which does not exist. The error
is as follows:
Line: 40
Char: 1
Error: Object required: 'XTunnel1'
Code: 0
URL: http://aa.bb.cc.dd/portal_install.htm
I believe that if I get rid of the remnants of old tunnels, that the new one will download. I have gone
through the machine and deleted the appropriate files in WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files,
drivers, xtunnel.*, ssldrv.*, MLWebCacheCleaner.*, etc.
How do I either FORCE a download or completely clean out previous tunnels? There are artificats
in the registry for virtual passage, but I don't really want to go through snipping things. Again,
this has all worked fine for MONTH's. So I don't need to change any security settings in the
brower (although I did obviously double check this)

I came up with a workaround for the problem. On a lark, I installed
Firefox and am using that. It works fine, although I would hazard
that it might be using more memory than IE as it forks a
VirtualPassagExe excutable under a Java process that I don't recall
seeing before (not that I paid close attention to this)
I had hoped that getting the virtual tunnel to work once might somehow
clean out the 'gunk' (?) from the previous interruption of Internet
Explorer.
But only Firefox works now; I still can't get anywhere with IE. Not
sure what this information means. Windows 2000 is clearly not the
problem (particularly since it has worked for at least two years).
And I guess we can rule out IP stack and the 'Dial Up' connections.
Dunno where else to head to clean out the junk. I have definately
removed all the files as per Cisco directions, but obviously there
must still be some sort of artifact some place.
"C:\WINNT\Downloaded Program Files" comes to mind, but this is kind of
a 'funny' directory. If you connect to it with cmd.exe and do a dir,
you get a different listing than what the Windows Explorer shows you.
Perhaps it's gotten corrupted, somehow.
I guess if Firefox breaks that I could move on to Opera. And then
Safari. Just kidding...
