We use something called Contivity by Nortel; their client does work through a NAT device, using a UDP-based application protocol to find the server. Works great through my Linux-based firewall, and my colleague's LinkSys router. Did _not_ work through my boss's new (bargain-priced) D-Link router; he had to get a LinkSys.
I have few details on the above-mentioned UDP-based protocol. Could the MS VPN client be doing something similar? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Daniel Chenault" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, December 17, 2002 1:33 PM Subject: Re: BellSouth DSL and MS VPN client > If it's doing NAT I don't think it'll work. > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Andrey Fyodorov" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Tuesday, December 17, 2002 12:23 PM > Subject: OT: BellSouth DSL and MS VPN client > > > Hi all. > > Does anyone here use BellSouth DSL service? > > I just got it installed and it is working great.
