You're going to have to camp out in their machine room until you find it. There probably isn't any other way. So far I think we can add "Cisco VPN" to the list of things that may be giving up the ghost. BTW, why do you keep referring to bad data? I never mentioned bad data that I can recollect. I mentioned hardware, operating systems, debugging, diagnostics, and the need to collect diagnostic information from the systems involved. I never mentioned data. My guess is it isn't in the Java code at all, it's somewhere else. Cisco pretty famous for ignoring specs and RFCs and just doing their own thing. It causes lots of weird incompatibilities with just about everything.
