I don't know about the first issue, but I might have an
idea about your second one.  If you've got the VPN Client
on a computer that is connected to the LAN that the VPN
is defined for, then you will have to disable the security
profile (otherwise it will try to send local traffic
over the VPN connection, which it can only do when you
are outside the GNAT Box).

If you have the VPN Client on a machine that is sometimes
connected to the LAN and sometimes not (like a laptop)
then you will need to enable the security policy when you
are away from the office and disable it when you are in
the office.

(If you right click on the SafeNet icon in the system tray
and "Disable Security Policy" appears in the menu then the
policy is currently enabled, and clicking on this option
will disable it.  Conversely, if "Enable Security Policy"
appears on the menu, then the policy is currently disabled,
and clicking on this option will enable it.)

This may or may not have anything to do with your problem,
but I thought I would toss it out just in case...

Subject: SafeNet VPN Client installation


A couple of questions:

I'm just starting to play with the SafeNet VPN client.  After installation,
I noticed that all of my normal network dial-up connections were removed.  I
had quite a few for traveling and am more than just a little annoyed that
they are gone.  Has any else observed this behavior under W2K Pro?

Second question, and I haven't done much digging on this so it could be
something obvious.  After getting the client running, I can ping my local
network as I would expect, but NetBIOS apps don't seem to work like Outlook
and printing.  It seems like Windows doesn't think it can talk across the
VPN, while other apps like telnet work fine.  My configuration is as per the
User's Guide installation.

Anyone have thoughts on these?

Thanks,
Mike Benedict
