I hope you guys can help. here is the scenario. I have a windows 2000
server that creates a VPN connection to a windows XP SP2 computer through a
Linksys router. the VPN establishes fine. However, the firewall seems to be
causing me some problems. With the firewall on, I can't ping the computers
internal IP address. If i uncheck the "local area connection" box from the
advanced tab, then i can ping the Windows XP computers VPN IP address. If I
turn the firwall off, i can ping either address and remote desktop or
netmeeting or anything else for that matter, works fine.
Any ideas as to what ports need to be open? I have tried selecting every
option within windows firewall, with no change. I want to leave the firewall
on, but being able to connect to it through the VPN is critical to our
network support.
