At home, I can access my work computer thru the office VPN. I want to do the
reverse which is to access my home computer from work. My home computer is
XP pro behind a D-Link router. I have configured my home computer to be a
VPN server (allowed incoming connections, assigned ip range, provide
permission to my local user account). In the router, I have forwarded port
1723 to my home PC's IP address. With all these set, I can't still connect
to my home pc using VPN. I keep getting the message, Error 721: The remote
computer did not respond. I can't even ping my routers public IP assigned by
my DSL provider.
By the way, at work, I am behind the company's firewall and I don't have any
access to the firewall's settings. My work pc is a laptop running XP pro as
well. At work, I can connect to my home pc using Remote Desktop so I think
VPN should also work. I need to connect thru VPN because I need to map a
drive to my home pc so I can easily transfer files between my home pc and my
work pc.
Can somebody help me please. Thanks in advance.
