[FW1] Securemote/SDL/Firewall problem



This problem would not go away, client eventually went to an alternative VPN product.
I tried to prove it is a routing problem but I keep coming back to the firewall. Ran out of options, any ideas?
-------------
Environment

VPN and SDL over securemote.

Securemote client configured for FWZ
Encryption Domain configured for necessary hosts: FW and hosts as above. Has also been configured for 192.168.0.0 network (and others with no detectable functionality change).

Firewall rule is:
SRuser@anywhere -> encdomain ->any -> client-ecrypt

Encryption has been confirmed to work with the smtp server in 192.168.200.x network. SDL fails and only provides cached desktop, but encryption "functions" to smtp (SSO & SDL enabled). No logs on PDC to indicate (failed) login, but FW logs indicate VPN connection.

Using Securemote client:
Ping to any host on 192.168.1.0 network fails, telnet to router fails, telnet to 192.168.1.9 port 2525 fails. Encryption seems not to be happening (need to test and analyse encryption domain contents properly??? should be OK).

From Firewall:
Winnt network monitor running on PDC shows that a ping to and from the Firewall and any host is correctly routed (ping and ping reply detected at MAC level), telnet to router works, telnet to 192.168.1.9 port 2525 works.
Securemote client ping is detected but not replied.

Firewall is licensed on 192.168.1.251 (internal interface)
Changed license to 203.x.x.2 (external interface)
FW Object is 203.x.x.2
WinNT4 SP6
FW4.1 SP3
Securemote build 4174
/Winnt/system32/drivers/etc/hosts has had both 192.168.1.251 and 203.x.x.2 to no avail. Now has 203.x.x.2 defined and IP fetch at the firewall object fetches the correct IP.

dnsinfo.C file doesn't update lmhosts file (content needs to be refined?). lmhosts file resolves IP addresses, and when "femail" entry is used for telnet to port 25 it uses encryption. Encryption is performed on packets sent to PDC, router etc but no replies get back and sessions time out.

Routes (roughly but relevant ones):
dest            mask             gateway         interface        metric
192.168.1.0     255.255.255.0    192.168.1.251   192.168.1.251    1
192.168.1.251   255.255.255.255  127.0.0.1       127.0.0.1        1
192.168.1.255   255.255.255.255  192.168.1.251   192.168.1.251    1
192.168.200.0   255.255.255.0    192.168.200.1   192.168.200.1    1
192.168.200.1   255.255.255.255  127.0.0.1       127.0.0.1        1
192.168.200.255 255.255.255.255  192.168.200.1   192.168.200.1    1

These routes were changed to be:
192.168.0.0     255.255.0.0      192.168.1.15    192.168.1.251    1
no change

The PDC had it's default route changed to 192.168.1.251 without change

LMhosts.sam
192.168.1.1     melbsrv01       #PRE #DOM:DONAME #SecuRemote
192.168.1.1     "DONAME         \0x1b" #PRE
192.168.200.9     femail       #PRE

When imported into the system (Network prop -> tcp/ip prop -> WINS -> Enable LMHOSTS -> Import) it generates the file:
LMhosts
192.168.1.1     melbsrv01       #PRE #DOM:DONAME #SecuRemote
192.168.1.1     "DONAME         \0x1b" #PRE
192.168.200.9     femail       #PRE
