RE: Event ID 32003 - Nat no longer working

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hello Jenny

We reran CEICW but at the end NAT was still not working and the 32003 error
showed up again in the event log. However when we ran CEICW we noticed when
the screen showing the ip address and subnet appeared (just info screen not
editable) there were 4 or 5 charactors of garbage shown directly after the
last digit of the subnet mask. Upon seeing this we deleted all the external
ip address's and re-entered just the first ip address as a test. We then
reran CEICW. This time no garbage was shown and at the end NAT was working
with no errors shown in the event log.

We later found an entry in the inbound filter section which we had not
created and therefore deleted. We then added back the other ip address and
all still worked fine.

Hopefully this may help others as we had searched but could not find a
solution to this.

Once again thank you for your help Jenny, it was very much appreciated.
