I have removed it now. After removing it, a ping test would return that it Timed-Out rather than Destination Host Unreachable. I was able to get someone that I could step through some configuration changes for me at the far end today so I ran a few more tests. I had them turn my Vista Box firewall off, and the result was that the ping test succeeded. After that I had them turn on Wireshark and I ran the ping test again to capture the packets. Now I can take a look at the results later tonight and determine exactly what changes I need to make in the Vista firewall to maintain the VPN connection without opening up the Vista box to the whole world (well not exactly, since the OpenWRT box is running a firewall at my gateway). Thanks for the help everyone. Jeff ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
