Juniper VPN Timeout Issues / iTunes Conflict

If you have iTunes installed on your laptop it is possible that it may have a conflict with the Juniper VPN client.
Typically this will manifest itself by killing your connection within 30 seconds to a minute after connecting.
The problem is that the ‘Bonjour’ music sharing service (an add-on to iTunes) changes settings with DNS (techie geek stuff) and causes the connection to drop with the VPN.

To resolve this, the ‘Bonjour’ service needs to be turned off and disabled.
Don’t worry, you will still be able to use iTunes to listen to music and copy over to your MP3 player, etc.
Steps to turn off and disable ‘Bonjour’:
1. Go to Start->Run
2. Input ‘services.msc /s’ into the command line (without the tic marks)
3. In the new window that opens up, scroll down the selection list to the right to find the ‘Bonjour’ service
4. Right-click on the ‘Bonjour’ service and select ‘Properties’
5. In the ‘Startup Type’ drop-down, select ‘Disabled’
6. If the service status is ‘Running’ or ‘Started’ select the ‘Stop’ button
7. Click the ‘Okay’ button
8. Close the services window

After doing this, attempt to connect to the VPN again, and you should have more success.
