pptp via internet connection sharing
Hi,
I have a couple of xp machines and a few others. I mainly use 1 to access things. I share the Internet connection on this computer with ICS. I can setup and use pptp connections on this computer and they work fine. However, if I go to another xp computer and try a similar pptp connection, I can see the connection being made, verifying username and password, and that is as far as it goes. It just seems to hang there. The same computer that has the problems works just fine if I start and use Cisco vpn software on it. I have an old (but reliable) Win98SE computer which also relies on the ICS on which I setup PPTP connectins and these work just fine. I also have a couple of computers which run Linux and both can establish SSH connections via the computer running ICS. I mention all this because I believe the ics computer is not the cause of my problem. You may also ask about firewalls. Neither xp computer has any firewall turned on. |
