RE: [SonicWALL]- VPN Client and AOL

[Jesper Bach]

Title: Message

Found it! (www.mysonicwall.com)   "Currently the VPN client and AOL v6.0 are not compatible and should not be installed on the same system. Reverting to AOL v5.0 might work better. No version of AOL is officially supported in use with the VPN client. If there are there any NAT routers/proxy servers in front of either the SonicWall (not on the SonicWall itself) or the VPN client it's quite likely the VPN connection will fail. Almost all NAT routers are not compatible with the IPSec VPN protocol and will prevent it from working properly. Check with your ISPs to make sure they are not possibly filtering IKE and/or IPSec. Odd as it seems, we've run across more than a few instances where this was the case. Does the computer with the VPN client installed on it have a NIC installed that has an IP address in the same subnet as the LAN behind the SonicWall? If so, Windows will try to use it instead of VPN to connect to any IP address in that same subnet."   /jesper   -----Original Message----- From: Lance Loudan @ Benedict [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 26. december 2002 14:55 To: SonicWall User Forum (E-mail) Subject: [SonicWALL]- VPN Client and AOL Hope everyone had a great Christmas, but now back to work for me.  I was hit with this one as I came in.  One of the managers here has a cable modem at his home and wants to use the Sonicwall client to get into work.  I set him up and got him in just fine.  But now he also wants to be able to use his AOL (yuck) and every time he tries to start it up he gets an error. ( the error is listed below)  If I uninstall the client and reinstall AOL it works fine but as soon as I install the client no more AOL.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.   Error: WAOL caused an invalid page fault in Module WINMM.DLL at 017f:bfdf6633.
