In one of your many rebuilds of the XP desktop, did you install any new windows patches from update? M$ seem to have a thing for changing configurations when they install these. just a thought rich -----Original Message----- From: Mailing list for discussion of Firewall-1 [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mike Crowhurst Sent: 11 June 2002 19:54 To: [email protected] Subject: [FW-1] Checkpoint FW-1 Secure Client & XP ICS At home I have a cable modem connected to a Windows XP Pro desktop, shared out via ICS. All very simple so far. I also have a laptop with Windows 2000 and Checkpoint SecureClient 4.1 installed, for connection to the office Firewall-1 based VPN. Now, up until recently this worked perfectly, the laptop quite happily connected to the office VPN via ICS on the XP desktop. At the weekend, we had to change some network configuration at work, leading to the VPN now being accessed via a different IP address. I reconfigured the SecureClient connection on the laptop and it works perfectly if I dial out to the internet directly, but it just doesn't seem to work any more via ICS. I can still log in to the VPN successfully, but no traffic after that seems to work properly. I get no response to even single pings. Any ideas?? Now, I'm fairly sure the problem doesn't lie with the XP machine, as I've re-installed this several times in recent months, rebuilding it from scratch most of the time and the VPN has worked throughout. Whatever originally happened to get the VPN working I believe must have happened on the 2000 laptop, but I just don't know what it is. Oh, the laptop also has Windows XP on it, which also worked with the VPN via ICS, but I don't use that boot O/S for work any more so SecureClient is not installed now. As I said at the start, despite all my current research pointing to using SecureClient via ICS being impossible, please do not reply telling me that as I have spent countless hours working using this configuration so I KNOW IT IS POSSIBLE. Any help at all will be most gratefully received.
