VPN connection problem

I am currently unable to connect to my VPN server with either of 2 Lion machines 2010 white MacBook and a black MacBook .  I run iVPN (L2TP) on an old PPC Mac Mini, my iPhone and iPad still connect instantly.  When the Lion machines try to connect for they try for about a minute and fail returning  "The L2TP-VPN server did not respond. Try reconnecting. If the problem continues, verify your settings and contact your Administrator."  I currently have my router setup to port foward and use a dynamic DNS.  I tried connecting straight to the VPN directly by changing to the internal LAN IP still no luck.  Any suggestions

I've been out of my SonicWall VPN since I upgraded to Lion last week.  Found a trick and succeeded.  I had to reconfigure the settings on the Sonicwall and make sure that the phase 1 and phase 2 authentications were using AES encryption rather than 3DES.
That did the trick and I was back in.
Of course now my 10.6.8 clients are out - I'll post more on that front if I figure it out.

  • Out of ideas diagnosing VPN connection problems

    I'm having trouble narrowing down what's causing the VPN connection problems to my new Mini Server. Sometimes I can connect just fine with my MacBookPro and use all the resources like file sharing, etc. So, this leads me to believe it has been setup correctly. But then, for no reason at all (maybe it's later in the same day, or a completely different day) it will just stop working and I cannot connect at all.
    *MacBook and iMac at home cannot connect, but iPhone can*
    This is what's really throwing me off. This afternoon, I cannot connect to the server from home with my MacBook or my iMac. BUT, my iPhone can -using the same WiFi network my computers are on, not the cellular network. How could that be? The VPN settings on all 3 devices match exactly.
    *Colleagues with other ISP's can connect, while I cannot*
    I've called Comcast business (which provides the static IP for our office server) and they tell me all my settings are correct for allowing VPN traffic through. Likewise, Comcast Residential tells me there is nothing that would block VPN traffic from my home. They tell me to talk with Apple. argh!
    *Web and Server Admin services are still accessible when VPN is not working*
    We have exposed the Server's Web and Admin services without needing a VPN connection to access them. Since these services are accessible to me even when the VPN is not working, this leads me to believe the server is operating normally and capable of receiving incoming traffic.
    I'm out of ideas and I'm starting to lose my mind!!! Any ideas on why my 2 computers sometimes can connect, yet sometimes cannot...all the while, my iPhone can connect just fine over the same network???

    I don't have an explanation for the erratic nature of your connections. It's only as I've said before, in my experiences with such problems it has always traced back to misconfigured network or DNS settings. mDNS is multicast DNS and it's a protocol Apple uses so its devices can find each other easily. That may be the reason why your iPhone can connect when other things can't.
    To take a step back, here is how I think things should be set up:
    \- Your dedicated IP address should be assigned to your router automatically through PPPoE
    \- The name servers as set in your router should be your ISP's name servers
    \- Make sure the server has only one connection to the router that is managing the dedicated IP, either wired or wireless, but not both
    \- A static network address should be assigned to your server's MAC address in the router's DHCP settings
    \- The server's network address should be put in the DMZ on the router or set as the default server in the NAT settings, depending on the router
    \- The network settings in System Preferences on the server should be set to DHCP with manual address and the server's network address entered correctly
    \- The router address should be listed correctly in the network settings in System Preferences on the server
    \- The name servers in the network settings in System Preferences on the server should be 127.0.0.1 and the router's IP address, nothing else.
    \- The zone files on the server should have a primary and reverse zone for each domain name and its network address. Do not use the dedicated IP address in the zone files on the server.
    If everything is set as I described, it should work. If it doesn't, it's time to call a witch doctor or an exorcist.

  • VPN Connection Problems

    I have an apple TC at home, running firmware version 7.6.1, and I can't connect to a VPN server at my work through the TC wifi.  If I connect my macbook directly to my modem with an ethernet cable, I can connect without difficulties.  When attempting to connect through the TC wifi, the VPN status indicator says that I connect and authenticate, but when I attemp to access a secured, internal website or computer at my work nothing connects.
    Any suggestions?  Happy to provide more info on my setup and devices if you need it.
    Thanks for your help.

    I turned off 'Back to my Mac' after reading an article about it using ports soemtimes used for VPN connection but it didn't seem to help.
    Turning off BTMM does not change the port allocation in the TC.. that is where the problem is.
    Can you be more specific about the ports required for my VPN?  The setup in my network connections on the MPBP points to my work website and everything else (except for my my password) seems to be automatic without mentioning any specific port numbers.  If I did find the required port number from the tech support guys at work, how exactly do I set them on my MBP.
    This setup again has nothing to do with the MBP.. it is the router where the issue is.. as clearly your initial experiment connecting directly to the modem shows.. it is open ports on the router that you need to do.
    I cannot tell you which ports without knowing what vpn client you are using. That is why my previous post began.. what vpn and what client??? Perhaps I should put it in bold.. WHAT VPN CLIENT DO YOU USE?
    Is it a built in client in Mac OS.. or is it a Cisco client or some other brand software client.. tell me that.. and I can probably figure out the ports.
    The vpn client should also have a log.. that will likely have useful information about why the VPN cannot connect.
    Also, I have an old linksys router.  How do I connect this into my setup if I put the TC into bridge mode?
    Connect the Linksys up to the modem in router mode.. bridge the TC. The Linksys will now be the main router and handle the connection. The TC becomes a dumb WAP and switch plus network hard disk.
    Will all my devices setup to run from and back-up to the TC still work?
    Yes, the network will still function as it did. You do not need to change the TC wireless or other settings.. just bridge instead of main router.
    Look in the Linksys for VPN pass-through. Some have it set automatically.. others require it checked.
    If you run into issues.. I need the exact model number and firmware revision to work out how to fix vpn.

    Hi Karsten,
    Thank you for the reply !!! & best wishes for the new year 2014.
    The problem is like this, if i select datacard connection type to NDIS it works but it doesnt work when i select RAS(modem) connection type for 3G datacard it doesnt. (NDIS and RAS(Modem) connection types are the 2 modes currently supporetd by the datacard.). Is there any case the users are experiencing from the similar problem? and what they have done to solve the issues? And thank you for the workaroung, i have checked the shrew-soft with win7 and it was working fine but not on win8, i will check shrew-soft on win8 very soon. Also we can move to the anyconnect solution but just want to know if this can solve our problem or not? whether there will be any issues with anyconnect solution for win 8 or not? can you please confim.
    Thank you

  • [SOLVED, kind of] VPN connection problems

    Hi guys,
    I'm having a problem connecting to a VPN in KF5:
    Until a couple days ago, I was using KDE4, and there I was still able to connect to a VPN (I'm using IPVanish), although after connecting to any VPN I always had to run the command
    # ip route add default dev tun0
    for the NetworkManager to actually use the connection.
    However, now with KF5, this doesn't seem to work anymore. All my VPN connections are listed in the applet, and connecting to any fo them also seems to work (it takes a few second, then the VPN connection is added to the "Active Connections" section), however, all my network traffic still goes through my "normal" connection. Running the above command after connecting to a VPN doesn't change anything.
    Here is the log of NetworkManager, I can't spot anything unusual:

    I'd be thankful for any hint or tip!
    Edit:
    Okay, I figure out a way to use VPN:
    NetworkManager somehow appears to have some problems with OpenVPN. I tried to set up a connection using PPTP (both are offered by the provider), and it works right away without doing any additional work.
    It's not really a solution to the above problems, but it solves the issue for me...

    Try going to www.whatismyip.com whilst it works, then double check when it doesn't. Router might be having its 'heartbeat' and changing IP's. Going to a static might work, or using something like dyndns.
    Also, find out whay port your VPN uses then to to www.canyouseeme.org to check you can be seen from the outside world, if not, then could be port forwarding issue.
    Both of these are kind of unlikely seeing as it is a daily thing that happens at the same time, however they would be worth checking just to make sure.
    Just my two cents

  • Cisco VPN Connection Problems

    Hello Everyone,
    We're having a problem with the Cisco VPN connection capability in Snow Leopard.
    The transaction complains that our shared secret is incorrect. What I believe is happening is that certain assumptions are made about the IKE proposals and encryption etc. There doesn't appear to be a place to tailor these in the connection profile. There may be at the system level (which I'm unaware of).
    Has anyone else experienced this problem?
    I believe the same problem applies to the iPhone's Cisco VPN connector.
    Furthermore, Cisco is not providing Snow-Leopard IPSec home-to-network clients any longer; they are promoting the AnyConnect SSL VPN instead, for which they have a BETA build available specifically for Snow Leopard.
    So this reduces our options (yes, I'm working on VPNTracker).
    Thank you.

    It is a known limitation that you are only able to establish a single VPN connection to the same VPN server through a router doing NAT like yours.
    What client exactly do you use and what settings did you define there?

  • VPN Connections problem

    Hi there.
    I have a customer that runs two ASA devices (Version 7.2(2)) in failover scheme, and several users that connect to the network using VPN Clients with different versions. Actually, just a few users have been facing a weird problem, when they connect to the VPN, sometimes they can access all the services, sometimes they don't; nor even can ping a device. At other times, they can connect, can access the network resources but with 4 or 5 five minutes since the session start, they are disconnected receiving an error specifying that the remote peer is no longer responding. I checked the settings, and there are users with exactly the same configuration that do not have any problem, and until this moment I don't realize what could be causing this strange behavior. Do anyone faced this issue before? Any suggests? Thanks in advance.
    Regards.

    Just to clarify: the users that are having problems access the network using different ISPs.

  • Linksys WRTU54G-TM VPN connection problems

    i cannot seem to get VPN (pptp) to work with this router. if i directly connect to the cable modem it works fine. i have updated the firmware and also i have made sure to enable all VPN pass-throughs. i even tried disabling the firewalls on both the router and my computer but to no avail. what is the issue here? i sometimes work from home and i really need to get this working.
    thanks

    What software you are using, when you try to connect to your VPN network. You need to open the Ports for your VPN software on your router and once its done, after this you will be able to access VPN on your computer.

  • [Mac OS X] Problems setting up L2TP VPN Connection

    I recently moved from Windows to Mac OS X (10.6.6). Unfortunately this move was not so smoothly as I hoped for and I am currently facing some issues with the VPN-connection to the company I work for. As with many companies they do not have a Mac-guide and I am trying to solve this issue, but so far unsuccesful.
    To access my data on the company’s server (MS TS Environment) I need to establish a L2TP-IPsec VPN connection. I used Mac OS X built in network tool and filled out all the necessary information such as vpn address, shared secret/key, password and accountname. I even double checked the information various times so no spelling errors occurred. After some seconds I receive the message that the L2TP-VPN-server does not respond.
    I checked other posts already and I checked the box that sents all traffic via this VPN-connection but without any results. For a moment I doubted that the cause of this issue might be my home-network: MBA <-> Timecapsule <-> Thomson TG789 … however when I make a L2TP VPN connection using a Windows XP or Vista pc this can be done without problems (using the same network structure) so I guess it is a mac-related problem either with my MBA (Mac OSX) or with the companies servers…
    I found out that using the console.app can provide me with some more information about the connection process:
    - L2TP connecting to server
    - IPSec connection started
    - IKE Packet: transmit success.
    - IKE Packet: receive success.
    After a couple of attemps from the 6th message it suddenly shows:
    - IKE Packet: receive failed.
    - IKE Packet: transmit success.
    - IKE Packet: receive failed.
    -IKEv1 Phase1: maximum retransmits.
    -IKE Packets Receive Failure-Rate Statistic.
    And this finally results in ' IPSec connection failed'
    Does anyone has an idea of what the problem might be (e.g. the settings of the MAC or the settings of the companies VPN or ???) and maybe a solution for this problem?
    Many thanks from a newbie but satisfied Mac-user!

    Hi, I have the same problem with the establishing VPN connection using L2TP without IPsec.

    Sorry to be vague but just drops out. Often citing insufficient bandwidth. However, I don't have the same problems using a 3g iPhone on the same wifi connection.

  • Nokia C7 - Problem with VPN Connection over WLAN

    Hello,
    today I installed Nokia VPN Client 44.01(5) for Belle.
    Before this update I used the following configuration: I set two SIP-profiles up and for each profile a own VPN-connection. One for connecting over radio and one for connecting over WLAN or hotspots.
    So over all I had three kinds of connections or connection groups to choose: "Internet" with the radio and home wlan connections, "Intranet" for the VPN-connection over radio and "Intranet over WLAN" for VPN-connections over other WLANs.
    The advantage of this configuration was that I could use the SIP-profile depending on my location and the phone had not to use the "standard" VPN-connection ("Intranet") over radio.
    Now after the update I have the problem that I can't connect to my VPN over WLAN at all. Not with the SIP profile and not manually over the internet browser. There is always the notification "Connection Problem".
    I tried also to put the "VPN over WLAN access point" from the "Intranet over WLAN"-group to the "Intranet"-group and gave it the first priority, but that doesn't helped too.
    Does someone of you had or have the same kind of problem or otherwise has any clue about that?
    Any help is very much appreciated!
    Thank you in advance! I hope that I described my problem clearly.
    Greetings

  • PIX 515e VPN Host Connectivity Problem

    I am having an issue with a VPN connection that I have.. I have a VPN set up to allow all hosts in a /24 subnet to work across from a single host on my side. From the host on my side, I am able to ping to and access some of the hosts on the other side. I have however, one host that is not allowing me to ping to it. We have verified firewall on the far end is allowing all but I can't make any kind of connection. We have verified that the machine on the far end is pingable and accessible from other networks. It is almost like the host on my side doesn't even try to connect across the tunnel. I have verified in my logs that when I do a ping from my host, it shows it building and tearing down a connection on the firewall for NAT so I know that traffic is at least getting to the firewall but it looks like it is not getting any farther. Has anyone seen any strange behavior like this before? I know that ACLs and such are correct on both ends due to the tunnel coming up when I try to access another host. The tunnel doesn't come up though when I try to ping the problem machine.
    Thanks,
    Brandon

    Also, we have tested from the far end of the tunnel and when I attemp a ping to the problem machine, they don't see any traffic hitting thier VPN endpoint. They do however see traffic to all the other hosts that I attemp to access on thier network.
