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. ------------------- Chris Moore [email protected] -----Original Message----- From: Mike Sponsler [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, July 25, 2001 11:05 AM To: [email protected] 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. -- Mike Sponsler [email protected] ============================================================================ ==== To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ============================================================================ ==== ================================================================================ To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ================================================================================
