Has anyone ever been able to get a Windows VPN to work on Airport Express?

I've got an Aiport Express hooked up as my primary router for my home network. My laptop is running Windows XP and I'm using SafeNet as the VPN client. When I use any PC based router and open port 500 I cang et the VPN to work no problem. As soon as I started using the Airpot, I can get the initial authentication to work, but all secured data packets keep getting dropped. I have a feeling it's because UDP port 500 isn't being passed through (though apple's documentation says VPN passthrough is supported), but I'm not sure.
I've seen a number of people with the same problem, but I haven't seen anyone get it to work. Has anyone been able to do this using IPSEC based VPN?
Thanks,
Dave

I'm an IT guy myself, with quite a bit of VPN experience under my belt, and I've thrown everything I know at the Airport with no success. I have a feeling the problem could be one of two things.
1. The port forwarding feature is TCP only (ipsec needs 500 UDP)
2. The VPN passthrough function is interfering with PC based VPN, and has only been tested with Apple VPN software.
Has anyone tried contacting Apple support with this issue? Any official responses?

    Yes, it's come up a number of times. If you look to the right under "more like this", you'll find threads that may offer useful suggestions.

  • Has anyone ever been able to leave openbox for good?

    I just went on a little adventure over the past couple of days trying out different WMs and DEs.  I went from XFCE, to gnome, to XFCE, then compiz stand-alone and back again.  I found that in every environment I was trying to make it feel more like my openbox setup.  Finally I realized that I needed to come back to my comfort zone.  I must confess, the main thing I miss from using other DEs is compiz and its wobbly, snapping windows.  Not to mention expo, and the desktop wall.  However, I hate dealing with all the crap that comes with a DE, and compiz standalone is just not there yet.  I also dabbled in awesome because I like the idea of being able to tile my windows, but I don't work enough in terminals to go that far. 
    Has anyone else ever tried to leave openbox? If so, why? Did you leave for good?

    The OP's question implies that you would want to leave Openbox.
    Btw, for those who enjoy the merits of tiling WMs, just configure your openbox to behave like one. I have the following in my rc.xml file which lets me very quickly arrange windows in a tiled layout with no wasted space on my desktop using the MoveToEdge and GrowToEdge actions. Using these actions on windows without decorations lets you created any tiled layout that you want (I tried Awesome before Openbox but just couldn't stand the limited layout options). All it takes is a few drags and clicks.

    You could of course skip the mouse and create some keyboard bindings to handle all of this too.

  • Has anyone ever been able to boot Clonezilla on a macbook?

    Is there any way at all to boot Clonezilla on a Macbook? Either a bootable Live USB stick or Live CD.
    Judging by the results of a google search, it would seem this is not possible.

  • Has anyone ever been quoted more than $500 to replace a failed logic board?

    Has anyone ever been quoted more than $500 to replace a failed logic board? A Genius buddy of mine swears that it'll never be over $500 but I' convinced he's high out of his mind.

    I doubt it. They don't even take the same kind of RAM.
    What makes you think a replacement "will most likely go bad in the future"? Some have had to go back more than once; many haven't. (And many have not gone in at all.) There are many iBook users out there, happily iBooking away without any knowledge of the iBook Logic Board Repair Extension Program because they've never had a problem.
    Get it replaced, free, NOW, and worry about the future when it gets here.

    ok thanks, that's what I tought,looks like apple machines are only good for two - three years, the software developers are ahead of the hardware to a certain point, love macs but this is forcing us to buy new macs just to keep  up with development. There was a time it was the opposite.
    By the time we get up on new stuff it's time to change again. Gotta be rich to deal with macs ...LOL

  • Has anyone actually been able to build a FLV player with Flex 2?

    I have been playing around with a FLV player in Flex 2, but I
    keep on running into one big problem: I never get a picture. Sound
    is not a problem, and all code seems to do exactly what it should.
    Except for the video showing up... I have tried loads of examples,
    read all of the docs I could get my hands on, but it all ends the
    same: no picture.
    The best solution (imho) I found is listed below, but still
    it does not do what it is supposed to do. Still, I only get audio.
    If there's anyone who's got a player working with the Video
    object using Flex 2 (SDK), I would *love* to hear your solution.
    Michiel.

    Hi Chielosos,
    In your code, after
    import flash.utils.Timer;
    You may need to add
    NetConnection.defaultObjectEncoding =
    flash.net.ObjectEncoding.AMF0;
    SharedObject.defaultObjectEncoding =
    flash.net.ObjectEncoding.AMF0;
    Hope it works,

  • Has anyone ever encountered a "shockwave player error" window when deleting cookies in Safari preferences under privacy?

    This window appears multiple times whenever I try to delete cookies. This afternoon, on the amazon.com site, the window kept opening and would not allow me to do anything else. I had to shut down my iMac and restart several times before I could get it working again. I have had this problem for a couple of years now(even when I was running previous operating systems). What is the deal here, and can it be fixed?

    I was having the same problem after updating to the Safari 5.1.2 and noticed, also, that the cookies wren't really clearing... after opening preferences again (after clearing them), there would be a few that would be added back.
    I think it's all related to a cookie issue that started with the safari update.
    I went back to Safari 5.05 using Pacifier as it wouldn't install under Leopard 10.6.8 which I am running.

  • Has anyone been able to get a mouse scroll wheel to work with a scrolling text box in authorware?

    Has anyone been able to get a scroll wheel to work with a
    scrolling text box in authorware? Is there any way to attach the
    hardware of a scroll wheel to a scrolling text in a piece? Sure
    would make things easier for the reader.

    I doubt it. Maybe using the WinCtrls.u32? But after a few
    tries years
    ago (before the WinCtrols.u32), I'd pretty much given up.

  • Has anyone ever implemented Nuclear Fuel Management in SAP?

    We have a utility client looking to implement Nuclear Fuel Management in SAP ECC 6.0. Any hints on which module would be the best fit? Has anyone ever done this before?

    Hi Ketan,
    I am working on Power project for generation of Electricity (Utility project)
    Nuclear fuel will be also similar project.
    There will be FI CO, MM, PS, PM modules mainly. Also PP module depending on how you map it.
    If lot of report needs to be generated can think of BI module also.

  • Just curious if anyone has EVER been able to use "live chat".  In the past 6 months no matter how many times I try I see the message, "All agents are busy right now"  Even if I try at midnight

    Has anyone had any success with live chat?  I have NEVER been able to reach anyone.  I complained to the FCC and an executive at Verizon contacted me I asked what options they had for me to contact anyone at Verizon (after trying to call them repeatedly and being put on hold and then disconnected repeatedly).  I said "I have never been able to reach anyone by live chat"-- her response was that is the very first time she has ever heard that-and that live chat is ALWAYS available."  I told her to try to reach her own customer service a few times and then she might know how it really works.  So I am curious- is it just me?  Has anyone been able to get through on live chat, and if so were they helpful?

    How unfortunate! I love the online chat!  Just used it on the 1st of October to inquire about the new data tier pricing. So much easier than waiting on the phone or in line at the Verizon store.
    Perhaps you need a faster internet connection or an update to Java on your computer.
    Hope my responding helps you figure it out!
