Most likely you have a MTU issue. Try lowering your MTU on the VPN
device on dell. Usually vpn software comes with the utility to change
the mtu. Change it to something like 1300 and see if it makes any
difference.

OK, please bear with me as my question requires a very long description.
I am a unix system administrator for the US Government. At work I have 2
systems on my desk: a Gateway desktop and a Sun workstation. My problem is
trying to connect to the Gateway. I have vnc installed on my Sun box and
the Gateway. I can log into the Gateway from the Sun box and everything is
just fine.
At home, however, I have issues. I have a Dell that I am trying to connect
to the Gateway. I am using a LinkSys router with port forwarding sending
all incoming port 5900 traffic directed to my Dell. We use Checkpoint for
VPN at work. I have installed SecuRemote and am able to connect to my
works LAN just fine. I can ping my Gateway and my Sun box and using putty
I can log into my Sun Box. However, when I try to use VNC viewer to
connect from my Dell, thorugh the VPN, to my Gateway, I get stuck. I am
prompted for my username and password. Then the screen saver I have
running on my Gateway shows up on my Dell. If I touch nothing at this
point, the screensaver keeps going. But the moment I try to Send a
Ctrl+Alt+Del, click with the mouose... anything, the screen dies and I am
told:
read: Connection reset by peer (10054)
Do you wish to attempt to reconnect to <my IP address>:0?
If I say Yes, I get
The connection closed unexpectedly
Do you wish to reconnect to <my IP address>:0?
From there if I say Yes, it just keeps repeating that message.
Any thoughts? I am running XP on my Dell desktop and have tried doing this
both with the Windows Firwewall on and off. I also have a rule setup in my
LinkSys router forwarding VNC traffic to and from my Dell.
Thanks for you help.
