Greetings:
For some reason, I am unable to get my Win32 (Win98SE, WinME, & WinXP)
clients, behind a IPFILTER NAT'ed firewall, to access Windows Update or
log into Yahoo Mail (CA or UK versions).
But these clients can access nearly everything else on the net and
download large (> 1GB) files using HTTP(S) & FTP. Also an internal
NetBSD & Linux desktops can access Yahoo Mail, even though the Win32
clients timeout
The NetBSD NAT firewall is running IPFILTER & IPNAT (version 3.4.29),
and has a PPPoE connection. Note that the PPPoE interface has an MTU
of 1460 and that I am using an mssclamp of 1408=1460-52. IPNAT is
the only proxy service running on this machine.
The NetBSD firewall is only running the SSH service (on TCP port 22).
It has an external WAN interface with kernel level PPPoE connected
to an ISP, and an internal LAN interface. IPNAT is running on this
firewall to bridge between the external WAN IP address and the internal
LAN private network.
I am at a loss as to why the internal Win98SE & WinXP clients can't
access Windows Updates, and I would greatly appreciate any advice on
how to fix it. I would even appreciate any advice on config/registry
changes to these LAN Win32 desktops if it helps.
Below are my IPFILTER & IPNAT config files.
Note that: ${WAN-IF}=pppoe
${WAN-IP}=123.123.123.123 <== static
${LAN-IF}=fxp0
${LAN-IP}=192.168.1.0 <== private class 'C' on lan
Thanks in advance.
Alicia.
