I'm in Testing mode for the moment.I Currently have comcast cable, Linksys Vpn WRV200 , DynDNS. I Have 2 computers at my house, One I'm using a crappy free dial up service to test on my host computer.
I Can connect my client to my host router completely fine. I Can ping the router and the computers inside the newtowkr.
My main issue is Viewing my Host's Shared resorces.
With my host computer firewall off ( xp sp 2) I Can view the host's shared resorces.
With it on I Cannot.
For both computers ( USING IPSEC) I have ports ( All UDP) 88,500,4500 and 1701 entered in exceptions. IpFilter is set to Permit All on both. On Both Computers ( Sense it's xp SP 2) and my client ( Not for testing perposes but in practical app it may apply ) I Have Nat-T registry entered in. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\IPsec
Manual putting in
AssumeUDPEncapsulationContextOnSendRule with a value of 2.

I Just don't get it. I Can't find anything else that needs to be open for this to work.
What am I doing wrong?
I would love to leave the firewall off and just use the routers firewall. But this is for my boss's buisness and I can't persuade him to do that.
Here are a few trial runs.
Trial 1: Both Firewalls off. Results: Connect to network And can view files.
Trail 2: Client firewall on, host off. Result: Can connect to network and view files
Trial 3: Client and host firewall on Result: Connect to network but Can't view files
Trial 3: Both firewalls on but disable IpFilter on Both Result: Connect to network but can't view files
Trial 5: Both Firewalls on but in ipfilter I have Protocol 50 and 51 Permit only on both Result: Connect to network but can't view files
Trial 6: Both firewall's on and both have ipfilter on with all Permit all Result: connect to network but can't view files. |
