We use a couple of Instagates (eSoft) for VPN. Looking at the VPN rules, they indicate "All services" are allowed.
I suspect the issue is related to rules as well. I've got a call into eSoft tech support. I'll update when I find out more.

Explain "doesn't work". Error message, timeout, what? What are you entering as the URL -- name or IP address? If only one, try the other. Have you tried a non-MSIE browser (MSIE tends to give the same error message for everything)? On a client, open a command prompt, and do TELNET WebServerName 80 If you get a connection, type: GET / and hit ENTER twice (blank line). If name resolution fails, try by IP address, see if that makes a difference. > I can ping both the webserver's name and IP address from the > 172.17.x.x PCs without problem.
