Cannot access the VPN server located behind the corporate firewall.

The VPN server was created by myself, in my Department. I can access the server from anywhere when I am in my business network. When I'm at home, I can't even ping the VPN server WAN interface. When I try to connect via the cisco VPN client, I get the message ' reason 412: peer remote not responding. "

The main my company firewall blocks external traffic?

Should I change anything in the VPN server?

I heard about port forwarding, but have no knowledge about this. Port forwarding is done on the VPN server or the main firewall?

Also should I go and ask the company system administrator to enable certain ports for the public IP address that I use for my server?

I hope you can help

Concerning

Yes, quite correct. Please open ESP protocol UDP/500 and UDP/4500 for IPSec VPN.

  • CANNOT ACCESS THE LAN WITH THE EASY VPN CONFIGURATION

    Hello

    I configured easy vpn server in cisco 1905 SRI using ccp. The router is already configured with zone based firewall. With the help of vpn client I can reach only up to the internal interface of the router, but cannot access the LAN from my company. I need to change any configuration of ZBF since it is configured as "deny everything" from outside to inside? If so that all protocols should I match?   Also is there any exemption of NAT for VPN clients? Please help me! Thanks in advance.

    A few things to change:

    (1) pool of IP must be a single subnet, it is not the same subnet as your subnet internal.

    (2) your NAT ACL 1 must be changed to ACL extended for you can configure NAT exemption, so if your pool is reconfigured to be 10.10.10.0/24:

    access-list 120 deny ip 172.17.0.0 0.0.255.255 10.10.10.0 0.0.0.255

    access-list 120 allow ip 172.17.0.0 0.0.255.255 everything

    overload of IP nat inside source list 120 interface GigabitEthernet0/1

    No inside source list 1 interface GigabitEthernet0/1 ip nat overload

    (3) OUT POLICY need to include VPN traffic:

    access-list 121 allow ip 10.10.10.0 0.0.0.255 172.17.0.0 0.0.255.255

    Hello

    Work on a domain environment?

    Changing the proxy settings is something that you usually only have to do if you connect to the Internet via a corporate network. By default, Internet Explorer automatically detects proxy settings. However, you may need to manually set a proxy with information supplied by your network administrator.

    The path is correct, except instead (E:\), it should be (C:\).  Does anyone know how to change this? Help, please.

    I don't have a 'E' drive in my system. This forum works on windows

    Help, please

    Hello

    In the sample OBIEE, you have a variable called BI_EE_HOME with this path

    To change this, open your SPR (online mode) and then change repository variable BI_EE_HOME

    We call this variable in your connection pool (you can change this path directly on the connection pool too)

  • Windows 7 error: "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You don't have appropriate permissions to access. »

    Hi I encounter an error message "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You don't have appropriate permissions to access. »

    The error message every time I click on administrative tools of the window (including the Control Panel, windows update, the Windows Explorer, etc.) but without impact on other programs I have.

    I rebooted in safe mode and discover that everything works fine (no error message will appear when you click on window management tools).

    I proceed to do a clean boot-> first disable all services of third parties (message yet to come), and then clear the components of the service windows (message yet to come)

    I tried to type "explorer.exe" in the start menu-> search field then click right highlight to run with administrative rights, then received another message of error "Server execution failed".

    I am the administrator account on this PC - and have full access.

    The error seems to have appeared on 11 August after Windows Update the following:

    Update of security for Microsoft Windows (KB2536276, 2556532 2559049, 2560656, 2563894, 2567680), and

    Update for Microsoft Windows KB2563227

    A security update for the Microsoft.net framework 4 client profile (verson 1)

    There is no installation of any software or updates outside the windows update.

    I also tried to restore the windows before August 10, 2011, but that did nothing.

    As the error prevents me to access any object Admin window - I'm unable to retrieve the product ID and write to Microsoft Tech and ask for help.

    I hope some of you can offer the suggestion of possible solutions (I really want to re - install window 7 and other software, I'm sure).

    Thank you.

    My solution works in about 2 minutes, it's a very weird error and only happened to 3 jobs in the last 3 years, this solution does not need to create another account if local administrator is active and allows access to the corrupt user documents ect.

    Log in as the local administrator or a domain administrator

    If the local administrator is not activated refer to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555910 and after completing these newspapers of steps on the local administrator account.

    Locate the user for example files. C:\Users\[username]\

    If you see no AppData press Alt to see the toolbar at the top of the window, select Tools > folder options, go to the view tab and select "Show hidden files, folders and drives" click OK.

    Go to AppData\Local

    Select all (Ctrl + a).

    Delete

    * Do not delete credentials (as it will remove their wallpaper) *.

    This allows to release the error.

  • Cannot access the file

    We have implemented a cluster and our hosts, added vmkernel and have the right licenses. The migration option is available, but then we get the error message "cannot access the virtual machine configuration: cannot access the file [storage]" I thought about is because they do not work on a shared storage...

    I had to think about iSCSI, but have not tried it before, and now I ask you, is the most optimal solution? We will cable from the server to the top with a SAS cable,

    The servers are located in different parts of the building, I could put the other to the first server and their cable it but to avoid this, is there another solution? I can't use the data storage "migrate" since I don't have essential vmware more...

    you need external shared storage and follow the right cable FC, iSCSI, or SAS. You can not just a two-server cable upward with a SAS cable and expect it to work like the discs are still local only. the other option is to search for virtual storage in which transform your disks local shared iSCSI volume

  • Receives the following message after opening a downloaded game: 'Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

    Hello!
    So I'm at the end of my rope with this one... it lasts for months, and I keep revisitng every two weeks to try and fix that and every time to be completely frustrated.  I found this forum tonight, so here goes...

    We downloaded a few games on the HP Games Web site.  We download them and everything works fine.  Then, we will open the games and this pop up error message:
    "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file.  You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

    These games used to run fine, and I have no idea why they now have problems.  We have a Vista operating system, 1 account who is the administrator, the Parental control is disabled (or if we believe).

    If anyone can please help it would be much appreciated!  We have a monthly membership to this site of game and continue to accumulate credits, but may not use it.  It makes us crazy!

    Thank you in advance!

    Hello Heathie,

    Thank you for posting.  It seems that the program is no longer on your computer.  This can happen if the game files are deleted, but the game itself has not been uninstalled correctly.  I recommend you to download the game again to a location on your computer where you can easily find and install it.  This should fix the problem.

    Please let me know if this helps you.
