I've set up a Smoothwall firewall and am trying to use my PC inside the firewall (Green) to access my company's network using Contivity VPN.
I can connect but the connection immediately drops out.
I think the problem is configuring Smoothwall for VPN access (the documentation is fairly brief). does anyone know how I should configure it ?

Did you ever get any documentation on configuring the smoothwall? I am faced with my first smoothwall fw and am a complete 'newbie' to smoothwall. If you have any documentation or useful URL's I would be greatful if you passed them on.

Cheers
 
Hi,

If using Windows XP or 2000 as a client then you would most probably need to update the vpn client that would allow you to connect through a NAT environment.

See document number KB- 818043 for more detail.

Thanks
