Windows XP Pro VPN
----------
I am trying to set up a
VPN Tunnel using Windows
XP. I was using two
Linksys VPN routers which
worked great but now that
I have Verizon DSL & FIOS
I can't use those
routers. So I thought I
would try to establish a
VPN connection with XP.
My problem is this, I'm
not sure what to enter
when asked "Type the host
name or Internet Protocol
(IP) address of the
computer to which you are
connecting"
The
computer that I am
connecting to is behind a
router. I have the WAN IP
address of that router.
The IP address of the
computer is assigned by
the router. This is where
it gets all fuzzy for me.
Can anyone help me here?
I don't have a
static IP address for the
router, so I realize I
may need to change that
address in the connection
settings if/when that IP
address changes. | joh9356

PAT or 1to1 NAT
----------
You have to have a VPN
server of some sort on
that LAN or on that the
router device you are
trying to connect to, or
it won't
work.
Every VPN
client reuires a VPN
server of some sort. |
