Hi,
Thanks, well that's what i've figured out so far. The only problem is that this might be to complicated for the VPN users (not really the best computer mechs). Isn't there any way to pull this off. I know that i can programm the router to set up the VPN tunnel. But does it work or not. Anybody got any suggestions.
It's also a problem that i the logfile you don't see anything going wrong. You see an authentication for a specified user and a key exchange. Users also get an authentication back from the firewall. And after that you can't see anything. No communication between the firewall and the VPN Client.
Doesn't anybody know a VPN client which asks for a reauthentication if there is a timeout, couse secure client doesn't. Ones you've authenticated it will never pop up at it's own.

Onderwerp: AW: [FW1] VPN ProblemHi..
I can see mo way to avoid that since every time the router closes and reconnects, the user will probably
get a new IP Adress. So Checkpoint thinks that it is a new request and will again ask for authorisation.
At least that's what I figured out.Regards

Betreff: [FW1] VPN Problem
Hi all out there,
Can somebody help me with a problem i have with VPN clients.
Here's the deal.
We have about 100 VPN clients all over the country who access their mail at our server (which is behind a 4.1 Chechpoint firewall). The users make a connention through a router with their nic card. The router calls (via ISDN) to an ISP. Every time they connect to the internet they get a new IP adress. The first time they make a connention with our internal netwerk, secure client pops up to authenticate. The first time it works well. But after three minutes of inactivity de router closes de connection. When de VPN client try's to make a connection to the internal net, it doesn't work.
We've already gave all the internal NIC card of the client a unique number. We now have it working like this.
Users first make a connection to the internet. After this they reauthenticate with the firewall and after this, they can open Outlook and view their mail. Same problem here with our intranet. After three minutes of inactivity the router closes the connection and the VPN users can not browse the intranet anymore. They first have to reauthenticate to browse.
Has anyone have any idea if there is an easyer way to work with the VPN clients.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
