is this suppose to work???????
I can get to my "server" from my laptop but it won't connect.
I have a DNS translation at dynup.net.
my laptop (LT) (XP SP2) is configured to connect to home VPN desktop
(DT)
my username and PW when connecting is the same as configured in my
(DT)
My DT (XP SP2) is configured to accept VPN (= server)
My routers are configured to pass port 1723 (PPTP) and 47 protocol
When I try to connect my firewall (software) responds with a request
to allow incoming PPTP - I do allow.
But there is no connection made. (never any request by firewall to
allow outgoing). Laptop times out and issues error.
I am missing a piece?
I DO NOT have any other VPN software installed - do I need this?
If so, what?
my objective is to use this connection as a file server for a DB file
for an application.
thanks
