hi all, i'm up and running xp sp2, and configured my vpn from the Control Panel. try to connect and ng. the message says "Error 800: Unable to establish the vpn connection" etc... turned off firewall just in xp was blocking itself, still ng. anyone else get a simple vpn connect from xp to work?? thanks, tom
VPN does work I have no problems using VPN. In fact, VPN running as I write this with XP as the guest OS. Try this...in the network preference panel under OSX, look for network port configurations. along with the usual ports such as built-in ethernet and airport, you will see one called: Parallels host-guest adaptor". My guess this is checked. trying unchecking this. unchecking the Parallels host-guest adaptor resolved my vpn problem. I have no idea what that port is used for but it doesn't seem to affect too much. I have been able to establish simultaneous vpn sessions from OSX and XP, using wired ethernet and wireless airport. good luck. Pete
