RE: [Security Firewall] VPN Question

[security]

Jason,   Can you post your rules for the VPN?  Also, I noted that you didn't say anything about protocol 51.  You need that too.   Pablo is correct though, a VPN between two MNF firewalls would be a better choice.   Slainte.   Jim McCormick Cencore   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Jason Whitman Sent: Wednesday, October 06, 2004 11:33 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Security Firewall] VPN Question   I have spent a considerable amount of time (on the internet and security-firewall mailing lists)researching how to set up a VPN on my test network. My setup is as follows:   Windows Server 2003(192.168.0)->MNF 8.2(static IP)->Internet->MNF8.2(dynamic IP)->Windows XP WS   I am a newbie at VPN setups and would appreciate advice on the best way to set this up. So far, I have set up a VPN server on my Windows 2003 server with the intention of using L2PT with Ipsec. I would like to be able to connect via my XP WS to a database server and some file shares on the Windows 2003 server. I set up rules on my server-side firewall to forward incoming connections on port 1723 and 500 as discussed in Microsoft's docs. I also set up protocol 50. I allowed the same ports on my client side. I was unable to make a connection with this setup. My first question is whether or not there is a better way to do this that I may not have thought of. If not, am I missing some rules on my firewalls? Is it possible to set up a VPN pass-through with mnf8.2? I sincerely appreciate any help with my setup.   JBW
