Dear colleagues,
I wonder if anyone has some experience in setting a VPN under Win XP with Zone Alarm active. I am afraid I have some problem doing this.
I set a VPN for entering the corporate intra network from home. I provided the domain name and added this VPN to Zone Alarm trusted zones. So far so good.
When trying to connect to the vpn server I enter my username/password (when prompted) and get the "connecting" message. After some time another message... See more Dear colleagues,
I wonder if anyone has some experience in setting a VPN under Win XP with Zone Alarm active. I am afraid I have some problem doing this.
I set a VPN for entering the corporate intra network from home. I provided the domain name and added this VPN to Zone Alarm trusted zones. So far so good.
When trying to connect to the vpn server I enter my username/password (when prompted) and get the "connecting" message. After some time another message appears: connection could not be established.
The administrator of the network to which I am trying to connect told me that he does not see my computer trying to login.
Moreover, my Zone Alarm does not detect any outgoing activity which means that most probably I have missed something in the settings. Is there any VPN guru out there who could help me with an advice? ▲ Collapse | | | | John Jory Niemcy Local time: 14:22 angielski > niemiecki + ... | Are you using a router? | Dec 24, 2006 |
I'm not an expert by any means, but I know from personal experience that a router can represent an obstacle. | | | | Natalie Polska Local time: 14:22 Członek ProZ.com od 2002 angielski > rosyjski + ... Moderator tego forum NOWY TEMAT SITE LOCALIZER
No, I don't. I have a cable modem.
BTW, the destination server can be pinged OK. | | | | |

Have you done the obvious -- disbale ZA and run VPN to help rule out other possibilities and nail the issue down to ZA? | | | | Natalie Polska Local time: 14:22 Członek ProZ.com od 2002 angielski > rosyjski + ... Moderator tego forum NOWY TEMAT SITE LOCALIZER

Of course, I did. And also tried many things suggested at such sites. It did not help. | | | | Natalie Polska Local time: 14:22 Członek ProZ.com od 2002 angielski > rosyjski + ... Moderator tego forum NOWY TEMAT SITE LOCALIZER

There was no connection either. And I don't think that ZA is the only 'guilty' or 'guilty' at all. But it is a good indicator of network activity. As I stated in my first posting, "Zone Alarm does not detect any outgoing activity which means that most probably I have missed something in the settings". | | | | | VPN settings | Dec 27, 2006 |

Thank you everybody, the problem has been solved by now. There were two different issues, one at my side (one of the protocols was missing), the other at the side of the intranet (the network admin made a mistake while registering my username). | | | | To report site rules violations or get help, contact a site moderator: You can also contact site staff by submitting a support request » Setting a VPN while using Zone Alarm | Pastey | Your smart companion app
