     Thanks Arno for quick reply. I was using win xp with SP2 so i just edit 
the registry and i am able to connect now.
            I have one more query, I have many windows ipsec/l2tp clients
behind the same nat(dynamic ip) at one time only one is able to connect, any
solution for connecting all the windows clients simultaneously.
