Chris, Nope I cna't ping anything but the firewall, my apache server won't respond either. Net use won't find the other machine either. Don, Where I went with the Travert and ping comment was that I was able to follow the suggestions in Chapter 7 of the docs. I have added a line to my LMhosts file for one of my other machines at the office, and that is the one I really want to get to. It is a NT box with several folders shared on the network and it works fine. Would this be easier if I had two m0n0wall systems and connected them as VPN endpoints? I did have two Linksys routers connected as endpoints for a time and they worked fine. I moved to m0n0wall because I got several static IPs from my dsl provider and I wanted to make those go to different ip devices on my lan. I'll look at that doc you sent again Ed On Apr 2, 2005 9:36 PM, Don Munyak <don dot munyak at gmail dot com> wrote: > > When I had setup the m0n0wall pptp server and added a user account, I > was able to connect to m0n0wall.
