Can't RDP over VPN in metro RDP app

I have a strange issue.  I recently purchased a Lenovo Tablet 2 running windows 8.1.  My company uses the Cisco 5.0 VPN client.  This client doesn't work with Windows 8 so I found a alternative called Shrewsoft which seemed to work well. 
My issue is that I can't connect to any computer on my domain when connected to VPN while using the rdp app from metro mode however if I switch to the desktop and launch the rdp app from there I can connect fine.  If I am on the local network (not using
VPN)  I can connect to computers using the app in metro mode just fine.  This is really baffling me.  Anyone have any ideas why this might be happening?

Hi,
I have tested in my workstation:
1. Set a vpn host.
2. Use Windows 8.1 client to connect to the VPN connection.
3. Try to connect the other PCs in my workstation, it worked fine.
Note, I have no gateway settings and use no VPN client.
I considered that if there is any Gateway settings in your desktop RDP.
Please check this:
If there is any gateway set in your desktop RDP, please open your Store app - Remote desktop -> Swipe to the right corner -> Settings -> Connection settings -> Under Remote desktop gateway, please copy the gateway settings of desktop RDP into
it.
Then check the results.
Also, would you please check the built-in VPN connection in Windows 8.1?

  • Can't Log In with Lync 2013 Windows 8 App over VPN

    Howdy,
    I've downloaded the Lync 2013 App to Windows 8.1.  When I type in my work email, I can't sign in.  I get that the server isn't available or doesn't support Lync.
    The error is attached.
    I can't find a forum for the Lync App itself so I'm hoping to be redirected or since this has to be an easy question, someone might answer it here.
    I'm logged in on our VPN and I'm working around this issue right now with RDP to my desktop and signing in to Lync 2010 there.  This is for the purpose of doing my class this next week from home and showing Yep, I'm really available over Lync. 
    What is really desired is to get Lync on my remote machine working but there's no real Settings page on the App.
    Apparently it does pick up the VPN and tries to sign me in:
    However, there's not much of a way to configure anything.  I can't find a "Settings" page. Tried uninstall/reinstall to see if I didn't fat finger something.
    Lync 2010 is set up on company laptops to work over VPN correctly from home so I can't imagine it's this hard.  I think the "oversimplified" approach of just putting in the email address and (I'm theorizing) letting Lync detect VPN or not,
    can I log in, etc. or whatever it does, this isn't working.  And of course, it's Encapsulated. :)
    OK, I have a work around, it's not a do or die issue here.  I'll RDP to my desktop, sign in and Lync will show me available.  I'll set my location as Home during the hours of the class.
    But ... it's always REALLY annoying when you KNOW it's a simple setup procedure and if that's just found ...
    Thanks for any help.

  • How can i use an existing vpn connection without using the option "Send all traffic over vpn connection"?

    I have been trying to get my computer (os x.7) to astablish a remote desktop connection to my work computer via a vpn tunnel. In fact I have just discovered that it works fine if i select to "send all traffic over vpn connection" from the options in the advanced setup of the vpn.
    If the option is selected microsofts "Remote desktop connection for mac" works just fine. However without selecting the option it is not taking advantage of the tunnel but tries to connect as if the tunnel would not exist.
    Now the question is how do I get program to use the vpn tunnel without checking the above option?
    Thanks for any hints and pointers.

    Then can her computer be authorized to both accounts?
    Absolutely. You can authorize any given computer to up to five iTunes Store accounts.
    If purchases are made on her account, to a computer authorized to my account, can I put those songs on my iPod?
    If you connect your iPod to her computer, yes. Tracks download only to the computer from which they're purchased, regardless of which iTunes Store account is used for the purchase. Or you could copy the tracks from her computer to yours and then authorize your computer to her iTunes Store account. But that's sort of defeating the original purpose, it would seem to me.
    is it better to buy music through Amazon downloads and/or actually purchasing CDs to avoid the security features iTunes puts on its music?
    That's certainly an option. If it's an entire album I want, I buy CDs. That way I can import them at the quality I want and to whichever of my systems I want. Amazon or one of the other download stores that offer tracks as MP3 are also an option, though for me download stores are best when you just want a couple of tracks off a given CD.

  • VPN - can't access internet over VPN

    Hi,
    I have an issue with VPN.
    For my work I need to be able to log into my office network remotely and then access remote desktop connection from within my work network.
    This won't work unless I am accessing the internet from inside the VPN.
    I have got this working on a PC, just had to select "Use default gateway on remote network" and now when I access the VPN on a windows laptop I am accessing the internet over the VPN.
    When I connect to the VPN on the Mac I can access the network, email server, file servers etc, but can not access the internet through the VPN.
    I have tried:
    - changing the service order
    - ticking and unpicking the send all traffic over VPN setting
    I can get to the point where I can access my work network over the VPN while also accessing the internet over my wifi but cannot get it so I can access the internet over the VPN connection. It is a PPTP VPN.
    Does anyone know how I get my Mac to use the default gateway on the remote network?

    If this server is behind a (NAT-) router you need to turn on "ipforwarding only" in Server Admin NAT configuration otherwise the server wont route packets beyond it's subnet.

  • Windows 8.1 Metro Applications not functioning over VPN

    Has anyone been able to resolve this in a corporate environment?  We are not looking for loopback exemptions with fiddler, but rather a secure method to configure metro applications to use a proxy.  If we manually set the proxy configuration, it
    works fine but of course breaks connectivity off VPN.  I've configured a pac file as this >
    function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
     if ((isPlainHostName(host) ||
     dnsDomainIs(host, "corporatewebsite.com")) &&
     !localHostOrDomainIs(host, "corporatewebsite1.com") &&
     !localHostOrDomainIS(host, "corporatewebsite2.com") &&
     !localHostOrDoaminIs(host, "corporatewebsite3.com"))
     alert("This connection is going direct.")
     return "DIRECT";
     else{
     alert("This connection is going through proxy.")
     return "PROXY proxyaddress.com:9400";
    When I configure a pac file under automatic settings in Internet Explorer, websites load correctly both internal and external.  When loading metro applications, internet connectivity fails.  I've also noticed that
    netsh winhttp show shows that I'm still configured direct connection.
    If I open fiddler and enable exemptions for Win8 metro apps, they work fine, but of course this 1) blows security 2) makes it very difficult to manage, especially 3rd party apps.
    Any ideas?  Has anyone solved this?  Every post I've looked at has very little response back from Microsoft as to a proper configuration for this.   Thanks guys.
    Ryan

    Hi,
    This is a continual problem indeed. As far as I know, there is still no a effective solution with APP network during some VPN connected.
    While, Untill now, if you need to set proxy for Store APP separately, you can make setting through Group Policy.

  • I can't RDP my VM anymore suddently after shutting it down for one day

    I can't RDP my machine suddenly after shutting it down for one day. can anyone help please ?
    If it's this reliable we don't need it but we will make this decision later. we prepared this machine for demo today spending one week on it and today when we need it, its not working. typical microsoft product.

    Hi,
    Which region is that VM in? In addition, what error messaga have you recieved when you connected into the VM?
    Firstly, I recommend you to check the quick glance of the VM to make sure that all the parameters are displaying. If not, please restart it to see if the issue persists.
    In addition, you can refer to the article below for troubleshooting:

  • NLA Disabled. Still can't RDP; "requires Network Level Authentication"

    Had a server I could RDP onto without any issue running Hyper V.
    I removed the Hyper V role.
    I then rebooted and attempted to RDP onto the server and can't:
    The remote computer that you are trying to connect to requires Network Level Authentication (NLA), but your Windows domain controller cannot be contacted to perform NLA. If you are an administrator on the remote computer, you can disable NLA by using
    the options on the Remote tab of the System Properties dialog box.
    OK... Never needed before.
    I checked the network settings remotely with netsh and confirmed correct DC as DNS. So I'm scratching my head why Microsoft are lying to me?
    OK, so I check the NLA settings remotely, sure enough is enabled. So I disabled via remote registry, reboot the machine, confirm the registry is set to NLA disabled again remotely and attempt to connect.
    And... Same message.
    I can access any other of the 2012 R2 servers on my domain without issue. I can open AD or any other Domain tools from other servers with the same DC as the problem server as their primary DNS.
    How can I get that message when both the DC is contactable and NLA is disabled?
    How did removing a role cause this BS suddenly?

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Which version of client RDP you are using?
    You can use RDP v8.1 for better performance.
    Apart from above, Use local admin account to log on to the virtual machine and set the DNS to point to your DC. Alternatively, assign the IP address of the DC/DNS under DNS servers of virtual network.
    Also when trying to remote desktop check the option “Allow connection from computers running any version of Remote desktop (less secure)” under system properties.
    Hope it helps!
    Thanks.

  • How can i configure my iphone to only pass traffic from certain apps over vpn

    I have got a telephony app that connects to a phone system through vpn. when I turn on "send all traffic through vpn" internet and other apps are really slow. is their a way to configure the phone to send only traffic from the app through VPN.

    Now all my new apps as well as several others are gone from the iPhone.
    Look on other screens. The 4.1 update ands Game Center to the home screen. If that screen was full it create a blank screen and moves one app from the home screen to the new screen to make room for Game Center. All the other screens are pushed back one place.
    How can I get my apps back? It cost me a lot of time and money to discover those apps and get them onto the phone. Are they just gone now?
    If they are really gone, you can download them again. You will not be charged again if you use the same iTunes account.

  • BPC NW 10.0 - Over VPN connection, can't launch Excel add-in - can't download/install Office EPM add-in

    Dear All,
    I am facing a serious problem in BPC 10.0 NW version.
    I am using Windows 8.1(64 bit) and Firefox Version 30. And, trying to access BPC 10.0 web over VPN connection.
    After establishing VPN connection, I am able to login to BPC web. But, the landing page shows only the Admin link. It is not showing other links to laucnh Excel, Word, Powerpoint. Instead, as usual, There is a button(Install) to Install EPM office addin.
    When I clicked the Install button, download just stops immediately, showing the byte size as ZERO. I believe since I have established VPN connection, it is not letting me to go to the Internet to download the EPM office addin. It sounds logical. But, I need to resolve this i.e. I should be able to launch Excel interface from the BPC web(web interface). This issue is eating my time.
    I am getting the same result for IE 11.0 and Chrome 35.0 version browser as well.
    Pls. note that, I am able to launch Excel DIRECTLY from the machine and establish connection to BPC web and everything works fine here.
    Pls. help to resolve this.
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Peri

    Hi Peri,
    I just wanted to know if you resolved the issue since I've been also getting the same issue and it's eating lots of time .. :-(
    Could you please share the solution if it's now working fine?

  • Sonicwall DHCP over VPN drops packets

    I have a similar setup without any packet loss. I followed this article for setup. Hope it helps!
    http://www.sonicwall.com/downloads/Site_to_Site_VPN_Using_DHCP_over_VPn__SonicOS_Enhanced_at__.pdf

    Playing with TZ205 DHCP over VPN.
    Used Sonicwall GVC for management using static IP for years.  Having handful of other network changes recently I decided to turn on DHCP over the VPN.  It's a split tunnel.
    Last few days I've been having frequent packet drops every 5-10min.  RDP sessions have to re-sync, ect.  It always picks up in ~5-10 seconds.  Until the next drop ~5 min later.  Well after troubleshooting I've found it's the DHCP over VPN change.
    If I return to static IP on sonicwall virtual adapter it never drops any packets. (Sonicwall client settings set to allow DHCP or manual)
    Updated to SonicOS Enhanced 5.9.1.1-39o , DHCP assigned VPN clients still dropping.
    *DHCP server just assigns IP/Mask.  No GW or DNS.  Same as when I set static.
    Any ideas?  Thanks!

  • Jabber call to voice mail fails with fast busy over VPN

    I have an issue that I ran into with CIPC phones over a VPN.  If a CIPC phone called over a VPN and started ringing a phone the call would fail with fast busy at the time the call would be forwarded to voicemail.  I found the issue was when remote the CIPC phone would negotiate the g.729 codec, when forwarded to a voicemail pilot over a SIP trunk set to g.711 the call would fail due to codec missmatch when no transcoders are present.
    So now I am running into what I believe to be the same issue with Jabber, when on premise the calls to voice mail work just fine, but when remote they fail.  I can directly call the voicemail pilot without error, but if calling a phone the call gets fast busy at the point we are forwarded to voicemail.  Even though all my regions are set to talk to all other regions on G.711 and the voicemail SIP trunk is set to G.711, I believe with the new features in CUCM9 that a lower speed codec has been negotiated since the we are going over the VPN, or Jabber has done this as it knows it's over VPN (not sure).  WIth CIPC I could go into the settings and turn off the Optimize for Bandwidth check box and the call would negotiate G.711.  With Jabber I can't find anything that would tell my Jabber client to stay on G.711 and I can only imagine this is a codec missmatch as the following are true.
    1. CIPC and Jabber share the same line
    2. VPN established and CIPC optimised for low bandwidth un-checked
    3. Over the same VPN the CIPC phone can leave a voicemail
    4. Over the same VPN the Jabber client gets fast busy once forwarded to voicemail
    5. Voicemail environment is Exchange-UM over SIP trunk
    6. SIP trunk is assigned a Device Pool, that is assigned to a region that all other regions communicate G.711 to
    7. On CIPC if optimised for low bandwidth is checked I get the exact same issue as I get with the Jabber client (fast busy when forwarded to voicemail)
    Would anyone know what I can do in CUCM 9 to fix this issue, as said no issue when all devices are on premise.  Wondering if there is a service parameter or a way to change the codec selection so the Jabber client attempts to always negotiate G.711.  The correct answer would be to get some PVDM DSP resources and kick up a transcoder in my resource group, and that may be what I talk them into doing if I have no other options.                  

    We have been getting the exact same thing for almost a year now... since switching to FiOS Digital Voice in May of last year!  Every time I call in to report it they 'escalate' the issue but it never gets resolved.  The problem seems to be in the initial connection.  Most of the time it works fine but, several times a month, after I call to get messages and it starts to play the new message it goes dead and I get the busy signal.  I get the same message when I call back:  “I’m sorry – that account is in use at this time.  Please try again later!”  I have even called in with my cell phone and get the same message!  I HAVE EVEN used the Internet to see if I could get my messages and, when I hit Play, I get a pop-up saying: “Your Voice Mail box is currently in being accessed; please try again later.  If the problem continues, please contact our Customer Support Center at 1-888-553-1555. We apologize for any inconvenience.”  This is obviously a software bug that Verizon has no clue on how to troubleshoot OR fix!!!  I wonder how many people have the problem and just don’t bother reporting it because of the hassle?  When it first started happening they destroyed my entire mailbox and I had to re-enter the complete mailbox setup again – 3 times!!!  NEVER let them talk you into that!!!  It’s their problem and they need to fix it!!!!!!!  I wish I could go back to the ‘normal’ voicemail we originally had… they want hundred$ to switch back because I’d be breaking my #$@%^&* contract!  Good luck if you have Verizon………

  • DNS over VPN

    Hi community,
    I am having some trouble with dns over vpn. On server side of VPN the dns is working 100% i.e servername.domain.com resolves to local IP address correctly from within network. However, when i connect into network over VPN the dns does not work correctly - it resolves servername correctly but not servername.domain.com. I can overcome this by setting VPN above my Ethernet adaptor in service order but then all my traffic gets routed over VPN connection (which i don't want) - even if I try adding network routing defn on VPN server. I probably need to do something on the VPN client (Snow leopard 10.6.1)?
    Please help!

    Rather than dnsmasq and openwrt, I'd look at the DNS server here.
    My guess here would be that the DNS configuration is invalid, or the domain name incorrect, or such.
    For a simple split-brain, you'll have one forward zone with your local Mac OS X Server box as the DNS server, and one (created for you) reverse DNS zone. And you'll be using a unique domain name or (far better) a publicly-registered DNS domain. But this smells like a DNS error.
    Post the +dig -x+ of the IP address on your LAN, and the +dig host+ and +dig host.example.com+ of the domain name on your LAN. And given this DNS information is either public or is behind a firewall and thus accessible only via VPN, please post the real data rather than masked data.

  • VOIP over VPN need clarification

    Hi,
    Recently I have implemented Site-to-Site VPN between ASA and sonic wall firewall.
    Problem: I can able to make call from ASA side(inside) Ip phone to sonic wall (inside) side Ip phone and vice versa and it’s ringing, But not able to hear voice. So I created VOIP over VPN configuration and applied appropriate service policy towards outside interface. But still I was not able to hear voice.
    Tried below mentioned t’shot steps:
    From ASA side we had two subnets (10.20.1.x/24 – Data and 10.20.2.x/24 – Voice ) and one subnet (192.168.x.x/24 ) from sonic wall side as interesting traffic ( lan to lan). When I configured site-to-site configuration on both ends my phase-1 and phase-2 came UP and can able to communicate between each other. (In interesting traffic I created two objects and bind those objects as one object-group for source i.e. ASA side lan subnet and one object for remote-Lan as destination)
    My call manager is rest behind ASA and Ip phones needs to communicate from sonic wall side to inside ASA.
    I can able to make call from ASA side(inside) Ip phone to sonic wall (inside) side Ip phone and vice versa and it’s ringing, But not able to hear voice. So I created VOIP over VPN configuration and applied appropriate service policy towards outside interface. But still I was not able to hear voice.
    So, I  done supernetting the data subnet and voice subnet into single network i.e. 10.20.x.x/16 at ASA side and applied the configuration changes (changed ACL, nonat rule, Voice QOS ACL accordingly), and I’m able to hear voice both end and I can communicate properly from ASA inside Ip phone to Sonic wall inside Ip phone and vice versa.
    My question: I’m not understanding the logic how this supernetting resolved dead voice issue.
    Pls clarify my question I’m bit confused on this.

    It's not recommended. Although VPNs guarantee a secure pipe end-to-end, they don't guarantee latency and variations in latency (Jitter).

  • CUPC Over VPN

    We resolved a VPN issue that was preventing us to be able to log in to CUPC over VPN. I am now able to log in, I can see my buddy list and their status, however the CUPC status in the bottom of the window is listed as "Offline (No Network)".
    Server Health:
    Logon Server: Not Connected - Disconnected
    Phone Config: Downloaded
    Presence: Connected
    Desk Phone: Not Connected
    Softphone: Not Active
    Voicemail: Connected
    Secure Messaging: Not Connected - Server Unreachable
    LDAP: Not Available - Server Unreachable
    What could be causing some of the servers to be connected while others are disconnected? We are running Microsoft ISA VPN.

    This is likely an ISA VPN configuration issue. CUPC creates separate connections to each system. For example, voicemail is an IMAP or secure IMAP connection, presence is a SIP connection, desk Phone is CTI, etc. All traffic is not tunneled through CUPS.
    You will need to troubleshoot the individual protocols to understand why Microsoft's VPN product is not properly transproting them. A good place to start would be attempting telnet connections from the VPN-connected machine to the locations specified in the relavent profile on CUPS. Example: Can you telnet to your LDAP server's port as defined in CUPS?
