Firewall in XP (sp2) -cannot connect over VPN
Last response: in Windows XP
Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.newusers (More info?)
Hi,
I use Cisco VPN client to connect to remote project
servers over WAN.
My sys: Intel '86, 512 Mb
It used to work fine with XP, professional - ServicePack 1
But with SP2 could only connect when I disable the
Firewall settings.
Where can I get details of how to disable firewall for
specific programs/ ports/ remote servers.
(I played with the Exceptions tab in WindowsFirewall
dialog but only cud connect if I disable Firewall
completely)
After connection re-enabling the Firewall settings seems
to have effect on the established connection - Cud read/
write to the remote http/ CVS servers.
Any clues ?

With firewall enabled I tried the VPN s/w.
It did not connect but did not get the 'Security Alert'
dialog/ baloon or whatever as the KB article says. - WHY ?

The article says, that this message _may_ pop up. Try using the manual
configuration as described under "Configuring Windows Firewall by
using the Windows Security Center".
