John,

-Do you get both phase1 and phase2 completed in the PROVX logfile, if
not you still have a problem ?

-Are you absolutely sure that your local LAN IP does not overlap your
PROVX LAN IP, if not, change your local lan ip subnet to something else.
?

-If not, i've had success in opening the policy editor, choosing
"options", "Global policy settings", "allow to specify internal address"
and the on "My Identity" specifying "virtual adapter" as enabled, and
internal ip network address ad something on a subnet NEXT to your PROVX
LAN IP subnet.

-Last, i have 5 PROVX'es running 6.3.1.0 (all upgraded from various
versions), no problemo.

You must have a general error in setup, because i've never had that many
problems with the VPN client(s).

Thanks for that confirmation, Jeff. I had thought the same, based on my
other products VPN experience....

But alas, no, I get absolutely nothing.  I can't ping any internal
address,
get to any internal resource, nada.  Can't telnet to anything, ping
anything, browse anything via http:, ftp, nothing.  

I have the connection manager open on the client, and see the
connection.
I open the log viewer and I can see the connection established, then the
keepalive messages start as well.  On the log file on the Pro-VX, I see
the
responders and negotiations come up, and everything shows successful /
complete.  Yet I get absolutely no response from the network once I'm
VPN'd
in.

This is driving me absolutely batty.  I've done this with CISCO
products,
and their client software works like a champ.  Never any issues.  But
this
Sonicwall one just seems determined to be the death of me, or at least
my
sanity.  Maybe I just need a nice big sledgehammer, then go to the CFO
and
say the firewall is broken, I need a new PIX box. :>

Thanks

J

John,

once you have negotiated the vpn connection wan to lan rules should not
have
any impact on your vpn connection.  Do you see the key icon with the
green
light in your taskbar?  that is a go.  can you connect to your
sonicwall's
internal ip address via the browser?

OK, tried the 8.0 vpn client that's supposed to work with XP for the
first
time this morning.  Now, I've tried the last version with 98, and 2000,
with
no luck whatsoever.  My Pro-VX with the 50 VPN client upgrade has NEVER
been
connected to via VPN client.  I have always been totally frustrated with
it.


Now, the new client, for the first time I actually see a connection in
the
connection manager, showing the key and "my connection" (the default
name)
under connection name.  Shows the correct IP info, protocols show "all".
The logfile on the sonicwall shows the IKE responders, beginning the
phase 1
and phase 2, shows both phases done, and that it accepted the IPSec
proposal.  

So it looks as if I have a connection established.  Now, having dealt
with
mostly Microsoft VPN thus far, I'm accustomed to once the VPN tunnel is
established, it's as if you're physically on that local subnet.  I can
ping,
hit a web server, whatever.  

Yet I can do nothing here, no ping, nada.  But since I have my rules
defaulted to block anything from the WAN to the LAN other than the
things
that I have set up for 1-1 nat, is that the issue?  Will I have to
modify
rules to allow something for VPN to be able to do more than connect? 

I've gotten farther than ever before this time... would be nice to
actually
have this work just once even...

BTW, firmware on the pro-VX is 6.2.0.0.  do i need to upgrade to 6.3.1.0
for
this to work with this version of the VPN client?

I've gone through the PDF files on their site, etc, and as with so many
other people on both sonicwall lists I'm part of, I just can never seem
to
master this puzzle, and none of the documentation helps for squat.

Thanks for any assistance.

John
