Re: L2TP IPsec on OfficeConnect, can't see LAN
All right, sorry for all of the confusion, but I have it narrowed down to a firewall problem on my vista client. When I shut the firewall off completely, I was able to ping the client. At this point though, I'm not sure which port(s) to open. If anyone can help me out there, I'd appreciate it. Thanks |

| I believe the Vista firewall blocks pings by default. If you want to be able to ping that machine you will either need to allow pings on its firewall, or as you found, disable the firewall completely. Note pings are not necessary to allow file and printer sharing, so if that is all you want to do, do as Shrapnel64 says. |
