Do you have more public IP's available to you that aren't in use? Easiest way to see if it's the firewall or the ISP blocking something is to put a notebook or something on the WAN link with a public IP, and then try to telnet to the one in question. Since you'll be in the same subnet as the sonicwall, you shouldn't be getting routed anywhere (like through the ISP) so if it works, then you know it may very well be something with the ISP - but if it fails, then you know you're dealing with a sonicwall only issue.
I've had flakey things happen on mine as well - I can VPN into my sonicwall but there's one IP address that I cannot get to no matter what, thus one server I can never reach through sonicwall VPN. I can get to the one that's one address before, and one address after, but that single IP is totally untouchable through the sonicwall VPN. No rules block it, nada. But if I VPN in through my Windows 2K machine, I get to it fine. Don't ya just love sonicwalls sometimes? :) Good luck John -----Original Message----- From: Jason Alba [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, May 28, 2002 10:57 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [SonicWALL]- help!! One rule isn't working Tried both, neither fixed the problem. Keep the ideas coming, but could it be that our ISP is blocking telnet somehow (could this be done on their router?)?

One rule isn't working I'd just delete the rule then re-add it again. If that doesn't work reboot the firewall.

One rule isn't working sonicwall-owner@peak e.com 05/28/2002 10:26 AM Please respond to sonicwall Come into work today and many remote users can't get into one of my servers. Nothing has changed on the sonicwall, and I'm looking for a silver bullet to fix this problem. The rule that is failing is telnet, over TCP/IP (23,6). You can ping the box, but you can't telnet into it from outside. I can telnet into it from inside, so I *know* that telnet is up and running on the box. Other rules are working for other servers... Anyone else experience something like this? Does the SonicWall need to be rebooted? What troubleshooting steps would you follow? Is this Monday or what?
