Hi,

I have a customer who is trying to connect from a microsoft xpsp2 box to a
windows server 2003 server using the microsoft vpn.
I have bordermanager 3.9sp1 running and nat enabled on the public interface.
Is this gonna work (because of issues with the gre protocol being dropped in
the past in bm38) ?
Which filter exception is the proper one. Do not see it in the filter
exceptions book of Craig.

Any help is really appreciated.

regards,
Marcel

Not possible, sorry.

No, it won't.

I did not put in an example because the problem is not a filtering
problem. MS VPN uses the GRE encryption protocol, which does not work
through NetWare NAT, regardless of filtering. (Unload IPFLT to disable
filters and the VPN still won't work).
