[VPN] Ip addresses

["Garry Rees" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>]

I'm a novice, struggling at the moment to configure some laptops (for home
use) with Netscreen remote and a Netscreen 25 firewall.

I have got the connections working.ie I can VPN in to the company network
from home via a ADSL connection, access Windows servers, unix servers, run
programs, download upload etc but am stuck with one thing.

I want to print from a unix box in the company to the home laptop. To do
this I have to print to a specific IP address. I want to be able to give my
laptop at home a specific IP address that can go through my firewall so that
my unix box can print to this IP address. At the moment I can log onto and
ping the unix box from home but cannot ping the home laptop from unix (or
windows) network when on site. I have tried (but don't fully understand)
mapped and dynamic addresses and think I need  policies, on incoming and
outgoing, to route the print data from unix out to the laptop. I can give my
laptop a fixed IP address but cannot ping it from unix or windows even when
I am VPN'd in and logged onto the server.

Any help would be appreciated as to what I am missing (apart from enough
grey cells)

GR

Adam,

can you explain why *exactly* it's a "bad security" ? Especially given
that the TCP connection in question is IPsec'ed in first place.

Hi,

Am looking into to find information to see if there is VPN for the
T-Mobile Sidekick (wireless mobile pager, more in Danger.com). Reason
to have the VPN is that I could use to communicate with my engineers
within the division both in and out of campus. Am deaf and am usually
working with highly senstive projects which would require me to have
secure access to my email or to corporate website. This VPN would
greatly help lot if there is a way to use in the mobile wireless pager
like the Sidekick.

Thanks and hope there is info that would apply to this wireless pager.
Or you might know one who could help me out? Or can contact the
Danger.com group to see what would work.

Michael Burns
