RE: [FW1] SecureRemote via Internet connection sharing through a DSL



Mike, 

SecuRemote can work over broadband (DSL or cable) with some restrictions.
In my experience, the most common failure is the user is using the same IP
addressing scheme as our internal network.  Sometimes this is not
modifiable, so it will not work, period.  In other cases, the user has to be
a member of a particular workgroup/domain to gain Internet access thru his
provider.  This has worked as well, but the user must enter his
domain\account info whenever he wants to access our network resources.
Then, there is the case where the DSL service utilizes the PPPoE protocol.
I've been successful using the RASPPPOE dialer available on the Internet to
assist here.

Finally, if there is any NAT at the user's end, SecuRemote will not work (in
my experience).  This happens with users behind routers performing NAT, and
with Internet Connection Sharing.  Although I haven't tried it yet, but I've
heard using UDP encapsulation will resolve this.

Subject: [FW1] SecureRemote via Internet connection sharing through a
DSL



Greetings,

I've got a few users on my network that are running internet connection 
sharing through thier DSL/Cable Modems at thier homes.  Has anyone ever 
had anything like this work?  It makes me nervous that checkpoint 
doesn't out right support DSL or Cable modems, and reading through phone 
boy's website, it seems that you basicly have to hack the secure remote 
install to get SecureRemote to work at all via a DSL or Cable modem.

I'm running FW 4.1 sp3 on a NT boxen.  I'm not sure what kind of 
DSL/Cable modems my co-workers have.  Any advice in general for this 
would be well appreciated.
