I have read all the post about VPN problems and made sure that all of my “i’s” are dotted and “t’s” are crossed. I read the document on the user group, http://www.d-tools.us/attachment.php...0&d=1196264317 .Change the ini file, still not able to connect. I know I am connected to the server because I can check my network connections on the server and can see I am connected. ( I am using Verizon Broadband Access ) to connect on my to server from my laptop)

This is what I have:

Server:
XP Pro
SI 5.2.31.0 and LanSync
Files for server ( C:\D-Tools\SI5\Server ) made sure that both folders are shared (Products and Projects). And made sure I granted permission, full control.


Laptop:
Window Vista
SI 5.2.31.0
Files for laptop: (C:\Program files\D-Tools)
I did nothing special on configuring the folder on the laptop.

I hope someone can shade some light on this problem.

Thanks

Eddie

Some how I got it going

I do have one more problem:

On the server with MS firewall on and laptop MS firewall off I can log into D-tools. With MS firewall turn on on both PC it gives me an error.
I made sure I added exception, port 9000, 1434 and 1433 on the laptop and server.

The error
Desription: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)

I have found that Windows Firewall is nothing but a problem. I had problems with it in SI4 and now in SI5. We have a SonicWall Hardware firewall/router that is very robust. We also use a network wersion of McAfee Virus Scan. The SonicWall does a great job of supporting software VPN and this works flawlessly with SI5.
