Hi Thorsten,

we're using a lot of VPN's to Junipers, 6,2/3 ... I would suggest that you
first disable Xauth on both sides and get it going. When this 'basic'
connect works, then you can deal with Xauth. There a serveral ways what a
Juniper can do with that logon information btw. we use a Radius server, so
it's easy to go into the wrong path ...
