Re: Windows 2000 Pro as Gateway

Well I turned out tne Routing and Remote Access service and did a registry hack I found at Http://howtonetworking.com.
Now the other computers can browse the internet using the gateway PC, but they still cannot use the VPN connection on the gateway.


I am running only one VPN session on the gateway machine. I just want the others to use be able to route through it to the remote network.

Why will the PC route internet traffic but not VPN traffic?

Thanks

"Frisbee" <gretrac_remove_@xxxxxxxxx <mailto:gretrac_remove_@xxxxxxxxx>> wrote in message news:u1s3ul0RFHA.2604@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx I have a small office with the following setup. We connect to a static IP DSL connetion through a Wireless Dlink router.

    The Dlink is set up as a DHCP server there are both wired and wireless
    PC on the network.  I have a wired 2000 Pro machine that I am trying to
    set up as a Gateway for VPN.  The home office wants me to use only one
    VPN connection for everyone.  So I am trying to set up the 2000 Pro
    machine as the gateway.  What I want to do is start the VPN on the
    "gateway" machine and then let everyone else connect to the VPN using
    it.  I have assigned it a static IP and manually entered DNS. It has
    the
    DLINK set as it's gateway

    Dlink -
    LAN IP 192.168.1.50
    LAN SM 255.255.255.0

    2000 Pro "Gateway"
    IP 192.168.1.100
    SM 255.255.255.0
    GW 192.168.1.50
    DNS manually entered

    Other machines set with Static IP's
    IP 192.168.1.xxx
    SM 255.255.255.0
    GW 192.168.1.100
    DNS Manually entered

    The gateway machine browses the internet with no problem, but none of
    the other machines can connect to the internet.

    Also the gateway machine connects to the VPN OK and can still browse
    the
    internet after connected but none of the other machines can access
    the VPN.

    I had it working at one time but for some reason that I can't figure
    out
    it broke.

    Thanks in advance for the help.
