Hi

I'm going to have a go at setting up VPN at my Office where I've got a
Windows XP machine connected to a 3COM ADSL Wireless Router.

I've asked my ISP to allocate a block of 4 IP addresses and I've had a look
at "Windows XP Inside Out" by Ed Bott which has a chapter devoted to
allowing remote access via a Virtual Private Network.

I can see that I'll come unstuck setting up both the Router and maybe Zone
Alarm Firewall!

I've seen remarks about "VPN Passthrough" and a 3COM router but I haven't
been able to find anything specific to my 3COM router.

So if anyone has had any experience with a 3COM router and Zone Alarm
setting up VPN I'd really like to hear from you.
 
To allow VPN traffic via the ADSL router, access the 3com router setting
page and open ports 500 and 1723 using the port forwarding option.
