![]() ![]() Ipforwarding is not normally running on a server that only has a private IP (no firewall and NAT running on it). If the VPN server is to forward IP beyond it's local LAN IP range, ipforwarding needs to be running on it. I'll try it tomorrow and see if it works. The tunnel only when you truly need them.

I've got an Entourage client which is trying to download email from my office mail server (IMAP, which is only reachable through the VPN) and from gmail.

To test this, 'go' to work, hop on any machine (that is not VPN'ed in) and attemt your telnet://:995/ and I am 99.9% sure it will not work, therefore proving that the VPN attempt will not work either. Quickest Answer is that more than likely the IT 'Guys' are blocking non-standard ports outbound. Can someone tell me anything about this - is there a setting like this somewhere on the VPN client? Or, does anyone know the right settings on the server to allow both internal and all external targets to be seen? The IT guy said the Apple VPN server was handing out weird addresses they couldn't anticipate to let through the firewall (outbount). I however don't see any options like this on the Network Connect application. After playing with this on a Windows VPN server, they furthermore tell me that the problem is on my client end, and that I should be able to select "default gateway" on my VPN client setup on my laptop. My IT guys have not been able to configure their intranet and firewall such that both internal and all external targets are reachable. ![]() I'm tunneling in from a Mac Panther laptop.
